Praise for Slow Down: "An enchanting exploration of everyday miracles. Splendiferous!" — starred review, Kirkus *** "This cosily illustrated volume wants us to take time to stand and stare, paying attention to everyday natural events, many of which can be appreciated in a garden or indoors through a window" — The Sunday Times *** A Bookseller Editor's Choice book *** "Fifty moments in nature are captured in slowed-down double page spreads: a cresting wave, a hatching chick, a bee pollinating a flower. The effect is magical." Fiona Noble, The Bookseller ***"A wonderful book for inspiring a love of the natural world." — The Bookseller


"Brief, charming verses and colorful, endearing illustrations offer up a world of wonderment in familiar surroundings" — Kirkus
