Although recommended for children, Discovering British Wild Flowers would be good as a guide for amateur botanists of any age. The information is compatible with the guidelines of the UK primary school curricula, which makes it a valuable teaching resource. The author’s passion for the subject matter is reflected in the design and presentation of this delightful text – and not forgetting her attention to detail, including the very useful ruler on the back cover!

The organisation by habitat is very useful, the colour coding and the icons too, and the big photos make identification very easy, with the flower colour index at the end super useful. (And I love the ruler on the back cover!)

The book is looking fantastic. Although primarily for children, it could very much reach a wider audience of parents, interested adults, and primary school teachers, indeed a lovely ‘family book’ for use at home and when out and about.

Overall Impression: Really good, easy to read, covers the main sorts of wild flower you would usually see and be able to identify.

Dr Peter Llewellyn, Chair of The Wild Flower Society

Many of us passionately believe that there is an urgent need to encourage future generations of botanists. This new book is designed to do just that. Its target audience are primary school children between the ages of 6 and 12. But it could also be a helpful introductory flora for adults dipping their toes into the sometimes chilly waters of plant identification.

I like its clear detail and layout. The colour index will be a good starting point for a lot of uses of this book and it will guide them closer to their objective. At a reasonable cost it could be included in the family reference collection for continual use. A nice size also fitting in a lot of coat pockets.
