Willow’s Gumboots

Take a joyous journey through nature’s seasons with Willow – in her gumboots! Willow loves to wear her beloved boots everywhere: in the garden, on her bicycle, while she is dancing, at the beach. But over time, she finds them coming to the end of their life. Her precious boots are destined for the rubbish bin – and for landfill. She regretfully stows them away throughout winter, until her observations of nature prompt a very creative idea.

From the author of Born to Fly, The Reindeer and the Submarine, and The Readings Children’s Prize shortlisted Spies in the Sky, comes a delightful new picture book with an excellent environmental message. Willow’s Gumboots is a beautifully illustrated book with simple text that educates children about upcycling and recycling, and how these activities can help our environment. At the end of the story there is also a fun upcycling project for children to complete. For ages 3+.
