I got this book for free 😃 It's an incredible, fully illustrated, children's book about an old growth tree in an ancient forest & the wildlife, flora & mycelium, which all support each other in the ecosystem.

A Tree in the Ancient Forest by Carol Reed Jones & illustrated with drawings by Christopher Canyon.

A really wonderful, educational book that all ages would enjoy & appreciate. This was a fabulous #FreeBook score 💚 It doesn't fit inside my little free library so I'm gifting it to a nearby community center's children's library 😊

The final proofs of THE WORLD BENEATH OUR FEET are in, so it's almost time for this labour of love to go to the printers!

My popular science-style book about the incredible life in soil is now available for pre-order EVERYWHERE, so please go bag yourself a copy! Now I just have to decide the shortlist of my photographs to go into it...

Welp. Only one month left to finish my edits, and then the book is off for copy editing and out of my hands… if I fall off the radar over the next few weeks, you’ll know why!

#WhatWereReading : it's Joe's turn to choose (just!) three #books from 2025 that he loved!

Is a River Alive? by Robert MacFarlane, The Sun Rising: James I & the Dawn of Global Britain, by Anna Whitelock, & The Casebook of Stamford Hawksmoor, by Bryan Talbot.

And yes, I am cruel, restricting us to to just three choices each!
