One of my favourite non-fiction texts of 2025. I love how much the layout has been thought about here & each page is beautifully illustrated. With flaps & pop-ups, there's much to marvel at. A must-have for science lessons! -- Tom Griffiths * Check 'Em Out Books * Full to the brim with Hocking's colourful and vibrant artwork, featuring a fact-packed text checked by the experts at Royal Botanic Gardens Kew, and with lots of flaps to lift, this blooming brilliant picture book is must reading for curious young minds and ideal for use in the classroom. -- Pam Norfolk * Lancashire Evening Post * Spectacular [...] Developed with input from Kew Gardens, it balances clear explanations with fun hands-on learning and curiosity. -- Tom Tolkien * School Reading List, Book of the Month * This highly illustrated, interactive, lift-the-flap book takes a deep dive into the process of pollination [...] The vibrant illustrations communicate these processes in detail and with clarity for children. * Juno Magazine * Beautifully illustrated and with the added bonus of pop-ups and flaps to lift, this is a read that surprised me with its wealth of information - all of which has been checked by experts from the Royal Botanical Gardens at Kew - and is one that doesn't simply complement the KS1 science curriculum but actually contains much that is appropriate for those learning about plants in Year 5. -- Jacqui Sydney * Mrs Sydney's Famous World's Smallest Library *
