From a young age, I have cherished the countryside, just as much as any garden, and have been captivated by the diverse life that surrounded me, from towering trees to vibrant wildflowers, chirping birds, crawling insects, and majestic mammals. In a sense, this book has been a lifelong endeavor, nurtured by my passion for nature and my dedication to documenting my observations and experiences.

My Garden World by Monty Don is a heartfelt tribute to the countless living creatures that we all share this planet with. This extraordinary year has presented us with a unique opportunity to delve deeper into the awe-inspiring natural world that envelops us. Whether you reside in the countryside or the bustling city, Monty's insights and observations are universally applicable to every individual.

My Garden World is a personal journey through the natural year, unfolding month by month, season by season, through the lens of Monty's immediate surroundings. Wildlife, rather than being a distant spectacle seen on screens in far-flung exotic locales, is right at our fingertips, thriving in our own backyards. The more we embrace and learn to coexist with this remarkable biodiversity, the more enriching and rewarding it becomes.

If we can contribute to the preservation and safeguarding of our natural world, even in the modest confines of our own backyards, we will make a profound impact on the world around us. We will not only enhance our own lives but also improve the well-being of every living creature that calls this planet home.

Let us cherish and nurture the beauty of nature, for it is our responsibility to be stewards of this precious gift. By working together, we can create a harmonious and thriving world, where the wonders of the natural world continue to flourish for generations to come.
