When Ali and Poppy hear about wild gardening at school, they immediately start to dream about all the adventures they could have if they invited the wild into their garden. They speak to their parents, and soon set to work transforming their ordinary back garden into a beautifully (and slightly less tidy) place, full of wild flowers and butterflies, where they can see hedgehogs and migrating birds, fox cubs and hummingbird hawk moths.

Our Wild Garden is a stunning picturebook about rewilding and forming a meaningful, rewarding relationship with the natural world at a young age.

The book opens with a young girl named Ali, who is fascinated by the natural world and loves to explore her local park. One day, she discovers a small patch of wildflowers growing in a neglected corner of the park. She is amazed by the beauty of the flowers and decides to take them home to plant them in her garden.

As Ali starts to care for the wildflowers, she begins to notice more and more wildlife visiting her garden. She sees butterflies fluttering around the flowers, hedgehogs snuffling through the grass, and even a family of foxes making their home in a nearby hedge.

Ali is thrilled by the presence of these animals and starts to research how to create a more wildlife-friendly garden. She learns about planting native plants that attract different species of wildlife, creating habitats for different animals, and providing food and water sources for them.

Over time, Ali's garden becomes a thriving ecosystem, full of life and color. She and her family spend hours exploring the garden, watching the wildlife, and learning about the different plants and animals that call it home.

Our Wild Garden is a beautiful and inspiring book that shows children how to reconnect with the natural world and create a beautiful, wildlife-friendly garden of their own. It is a must-read for anyone who loves the outdoors and wants to create a more sustainable and healthy environment for themselves and future generations.

In conclusion, Our Wild Garden is a stunning picturebook about rewilding and forming a meaningful, rewarding relationship with the natural world at a young age. It is a must-read for anyone who loves the outdoors and wants to create a more sustainable and healthy environment for themselves and future generations.
