Lots of Things to Spot Throughout the Year

From the buds and blossom of springtime to bright summer flowers and butterflies, from autumn leaves and fruits to animals that venture out even on the coldest winter days, every season of the year brings new things to spot as the natural world changes all around us. This beautifully illustrated book is the perfect way for children to find out about the animals, insects, birds, flowers and trees to look out for across the changing seasons. There are 240 things to spot, with a fascinating fact and a picture for each one.

About the author

Lara Bryan (Author)
Lara has loved books since the days of being read bedtime stories by her Irish dad and French mum. At school she set up a secondhand bookshop called Books Change Lives, and went on to study English and Italian at Oxford University. After teaching in Italy and Myanmar, she got her dream job as a writer for Usborne Publishing. From explaining how economics works, to inventing boredom-busting activities, to telling a good dragon yarn, she's enjoyed every minute of the job.

Simon Tudhope (Author)
Before joining Usborne, Simon worked in Moscow as sports editor for a local paper. These days he writes about things that aren't actually real, but are very important nevertheless. Mysteries and monsters and impossible quests in faraway realms that you won't find on any map. All the sort of stuff he loved as a child, basically. (And still does.)
