In Walking, Henry David Thoreau talks about the importance of
nature to mankind, and how people cannot survive without nature,
physically, mentally, and spiritually, yet we seem to be spending
more and more time entrenched by society. For Thoreau walking is a
self-reflective spiritual act that occurs only when you are away
from society, that allows you to learn about who you are, and find
other aspects of yourself that have been chipped away by society.
This new edition of Thoreau's classic work includes annotations and
a biographical essay.
This 100 page, lined 6x9 journal/diary is inspired by Tyra Hodge's
"A Wounded Daughter's Diary" book. You will feel inspired to write
through your struggles and success with this beautiful journal.
A brand new colouring collection from number 1 bestselling illustrator Millie Marotta, exploring wildlife conservation – a subject very close to her heart.
This gorgeous book features 77 amazing animals and plants from around the world to colour, with a focus on endangered and vulnerable species. Containing a rich mix of wildlife from the much-loved snow leopard to the the adorable axolotl, from the vibrant ladybird spider to the otherworldly galaxy frog, it’s a celebration of creatures that are currently at risk but that humanity is making efforts to save.
Use your pencils or pens to bring colourful life to a wealth of wonderful wildlife, all rendered in Millie's beautifully intricate style, including:
- Big beasts like the Javan rhino, the Bactrian camel and the elusive mountain gorilla.
- Treasures of the sea: the dugong, the mini blue bee shrimp and the northern right whale.
- Beautiful birds: the northern lapwing, the Ocarito kiwi and the fearsome bearded vulture.
- The insects that pollinate our world: many different bumblebee species, the purple skimmer dragonfly and the Madeiran brimstone butterfly.
- ‘Lazarus species’, thought to be extinct but now discovered in the world, such as the Cuban solenodon and the night parrot, and a few long-extinct and near-mythological animals – the woolly mammoth and the sabre-tooth tiger.
Printed on high-quality paper with minimal show-through, suitable for all sorts of colouring media, this is a glorious treasury of the wildlife we don't want to lose.
