Wherever there’s a patch of nature, children can find the Wild Wood, and wherever there is the Wild Wood, a little hedgewitch is needed!
Hettie’s Nettle’s month-by-month guide opens the door on a hidden world—one that only children can see. Full of secrets, top tips, and funny, magical friends, this handbook is an essential guide for imaginative young guardians of nature.
Learn each month’s secret Whisper Name (January’s is The Dreaming—shh!)
Enjoy celebrity interviewswith celebrities from the Wild Wood (such the Sun and Jack Frost)
Help organize the seasonal celebrations of the Wheel of the Year (the wedding of Jack-in-the-Green and the Queen of the May at Beltane is the event of the season!)
Have fun with the Spell of the Month (make a wish with a dandelion clock charm)
Enjoy seasonal tales from Flittermouse (Hettie’s favourite is The Hare and the Moon!)
Filled with watercolor illustrations from Hettie’s enchanted paintbox and details about the fascinating folk she meets in her daily life, this secret notebook will connect you with the magic that lives inside and around us every day.
