Little Moments Outside | A Children's Nature Spotting Guide to UK Garden Birds, Minibeasts and Trees

Little Moments Outside is a beautifully illustrated spotting guide for children aged 3–10, packed with facts about the birds, minibeasts and trees they're most likely to find just outside their door. From blue tits and robins to oak trees and earthworms, each page brings a familiar creature or plant to life with a stunning paper-cut illustration and facts that will interest curious young minds. Did you know robins have been found nesting inside wheelie bins? That woodlice have blue blood and breathe through gills? That a single ladybird can eat up to 5,000 aphids in its lifetime? This book is designed to do one thing: inspire children to look a little closer. Whether it's a garden, a local park or the walk to school, there's a whole wild world waiting to be noticed. And the more children notice, the more they care. As David Attenborough said: "If children grow up not knowing about nature and appreciating it, they will not understand it, and if they don't understand it, they won't protect it." Little Moments Outside is a small step towards changing that. Written and created by Clare Cahill, founder of A Little Bird Co., Little Moments Outside grew from a very honest place - the realisation that she couldn't name the trees on her street, and a determination that her daughters would grow up with a better knowledge and understanding of the natural world. It's a book born from love, curiosity, and a quiet wish to do better by the wild world around us.
