An animated celebration of the countryside with a powerful message about the importance of preserving nature at its heart, Old Oak and the Wild Flowers will both delight and inform young readers.
After a particularly long, hot summer the wildlife in Barley Field is dying and many of the butterflies, bees and all the other insects who have always lived in it are persuaded by Stag Beetle that they should leave the field and find food else were. Luckily, Mr Shield and Old Oak quickly come up with a plan!
The birds are on standby to help. Together they bring the life and colour of new plants back into Barley Field and the insects soon follow. Erin Brown’s detailed and colourful illustrations bring this animated pastural scene to life beautifully.
A lyrical story featuring charming characters, encouraging nature connection, empathy and positive action. Illustrated in stunning detail by Erin Brown, children will enjoy spotting a multitude of accurately depicted creatures and gain understanding of the interdependence of species. Old Oak and Mr Shield, his shield bug friend, are worried: summer has been long and dry, and there are fewer insects and birds in the Barley Field.
