Bothered By Bugs

What it is: A funny, beautifully illustrated picture book by twice Kate Greenaway Medal winner Emily Gravett, following Pete the Badger as he discovers just how important even the tiniest creatures are to life in the forest. Packed with rhyming text, woodland friends and a few simple fruit recipes, it's a joyful celebration of nature.

Why we love it: This clever story shows children that every creature has an important role to play, no matter how small. With plenty of humour, engaging illustrations and a gentle environmental message about biodiversity and balance in nature, it's a brilliant read-aloud that inspires curiosity about the natural world while making everyone laugh along the way. Perfect for budding nature lovers aged 3+.
