Ghillie Wakes Up cover

"As the sun rose over the brow of the hill and turned each blade of grass a shade of golden green, Ghillie slowly opened his eyes ..." Disaster! When Ghillie the giant redwood tree wakes after his winter sleep, he has a fright. His best friend Willow has fallen in a storm! Can Ghillie, Ember the squirrel and the badgers put her back together again? And what surprise of her own does Willow have in store? **Includes special reference section with arborist Joe Robson** A beautiful story about the secret life of trees for all ages

"An educational delight! There’s a depth to this story which would be beneficial to children of school age, who are beginning to comprehend environmental issues. However, younger age groups would get lots of enjoyment from it due to the accompanying artwork and the fun animal elements. A nice addition as the story closes is the ‘did you know’ section which is good for conversation about trees, woodlands and the natural world. I would recommend this story for children of 4+ years, but also feel it’s suitable for reading to younger children as the illustrations are eye catching and beautifully done" -- OwlBeSatReading; "[A] lovely children's book about wildlife and nature. The illustrations are beautiful and keep you engaged with the book. The story is beautifully written and children from 4 above with love this story. The story is very informative and engaging. 5 stars children will love this book" -- Emma Fitzgerald book reviewer; "A wonderful, informative story of how trees think, behave and grow through the seasons and through life’s challenges" -- Kraftireader
