Footpath Flowers by Jon Arno Lawson & Sydney Smith

KS1 & KS2

With the aim of perhaps starting it at Year 2 or above, this is a beautiful, wordless picturebook set in the States which looks at the disconnect that we have with the natural world. The use of perspective and clever play with colour means that the pictures tell much more than perhaps words could. Reviews & Interviews here:
