Our planet is powered by the oceans, entangled in plants, and home
to animals of every colour, shape and size. But in its last true
wilderness, our planet is white . . . welcome to our frozen planet.
Each year, a quarter of our planet is frozen solid, so let's
journey to these ice kingdoms: Dive under the ice ceiling and learn
to swim with the seal pups, take to the skies with frozen
flamingos, and settle in for a snooze with a windy walrus. Watch
orcas sneak up on bowhead whales while they're relaxing in the spa,
meet a Greenland shark that is easily 250 years old, and witness
the polar bears who are finding their food closer and closer to
humans. Hold your breath in the frozen forest where wolves play
hide-and-seek with bison, and meet the lemmings that outwit an
arctic fox by building their home right under her feet, buried deep
beneath the snow. Wrap up warm, and discover spine-tingling true
stories from our incredible planet, in this ground-breaking new BBC
Earth series narrated by Sir David Attenborough.
Journey through the jungle and coral reefs, across the African
plains and icy poles, and even to the Galapagos Islands, as you
discover all there is to know about the world's best-known and
best-loved naturalist, Sir David Attenborough, in this beautifully
illustrated picture book. From a childhood spent searching for
fossils to his awe-inspiring work as a broadcaster and
conservationist, learn about Sir David Attenborough's WILD life, as
he goes further, higher and deeper than anyone ever before to share
our incredible natural world, and embarks on a mission to protect
it. A perfect gift for budding naturalists and fans of David's
wildlife documentaries.
Discover real-life stories of treasures lost, stolen and found
where YOU become the treasure hunter! Discover a message in a
bottle that appears to be from the ghost of Captain William Kidd -
the infamous pirate and now, it would seem, thief! Follow a
breadcrumb trail of intriguing clues left by the treasure-hungry
thief as he travels the world attempting to steal great historic
artefacts, paintings, gold and more. The Treasure Hunt takes you on
an epic adventure, where you will find out how to decipher tricky
codes and uncover heart-stopping accounts of how famous treasures
were lost, found or stolen! Crack the codes to turn the page and
travel from country to country. But be warned - some treasures may
never be found ...
This is our Green Planet: a hidden world where plants care for
other plants and can smell, taste, touch, hear and even . . .
'talk'. In the world of plants, time passes more slowly, but if we
speed months into minutes we can peer into this hidden world and
realise: it's a battleground. Plants are working to thwart their
enemies, and to trick animals into working for them. Right under
your feet, and all around you, is a secret world you've probably
never noticed. Until now. Let's explore our Green Planet: a secret
world of plants that might change how you see plants forever . . .
Discover all there is to love about our astonishing Green Planet,
the stories of its inhabitants, and the challenges it faces. In
collaboration with BBC Earth, this illustrated non-fiction book

BBC TV series: The Green Planet, narrated by Sir David
Attenborough.
Don't get too comfortable. This isn't the type of book you can
snuggle up with under the covers. Not even close! You're off on the
expedition of a lifetime to experience the sights, sounds, smells,
feelings and tastes of the world's most extreme places. Have you
ever wondered what the buzz of the rainforest sounds like on a trek
through the Amazon? Or how it would feel to experience the biting
cold as you voyage across Antarctica? Or how about how chocolate
would taste on Mount Everest? From every heart-bursting sight to
tummy-lurching bite, this is a truly immersive round-the-world
adventure, where YOU are the explorer.

of our frozen planet, as you've never seen it before. Welcome to

bowhead whales while they're relaxing in the spa, meet a Greenland
shark that is easily 250 years old, and witness the polar bears who

This is our Blue Planet: a beautiful blue marble suspended in a sea
of stars. Unlike billions of other worlds in the Milky Way, 71 per
cent of our Blue Planet is covered by ocean. It's home to the
greatest diversity of life on Earth but is our least explored
habitat; we've better maps of Mars than of the ocean floor. With so
much more to discover, take a deep breath . . . and dive into a
wondrous world beneath the waves. Explore coral reefs that shimmer
in a kaleidoscope of colours. Venture to the bottom of the ocean
where creatures beyond your wildest imagination live in the dark.
Chase sea otters through kelp forest seas, and glide the open ocean
with humpback whales. Discover all there is to love about our Blue
Planet, the stories of its inhabitants, and realise how you can
help protect this wilderness beneath the waves. In collaboration
with BBC Earth, this illustrated non-fiction book will capture the
wonder, beauty, and emotion of the iconic BBC Blue Planet II TV
series.

Flamingo Flo is throwing the most FABULOUS, most PERFECT pool
party. And her spitty, smelly, bitey neighbours the Beastly Bunch
are definitely NOT invited. But when Flo's true colours shine
through, her guests leave and her perfect party is . . . a flop.
Will Flo realise what friendship is REALLY all about before it's
too late? The Beastly Bunch is a fun, riotous picture book that
celebrates the importance of kindness and inclusivity - and reminds
us that being fabulous is all about how you feel and how you treat
others, NOT how you look!
