' says Nosy Crow of this outstanding poetry anthology and I wholeheartedly agree. I Am the Seed That Grew the Tree, named after the first line of Judith Nicholls' poem 'Windsong', is a lavishly illustrated collection of 366 nature poems - one for every day of the year, including leap years. This book not only allows you the joy of short poetry.

Nosy Crow Books have put their heart and soul into creating an extraordinary collection of nature poems for every day of the year, carefully selected by Fiona Waters and stunningly illustrated by Frann Preston-Gannon. You have over 300 pages of happiness in one treasure of a publication to read over and over. The illustrations, often atmospheric, offer great scope for discussion beyond the poem/s, but, for now, this book is for me!
