Bothy : In Search of Simple Shelter
A bothy is a remote hut in the wilderness that you can’t reserve, with no electricity, mod-cons or running water.
The doors are always unlocked, you just need to step inside. From the rugged cliffs at the northern tip of Scotland to the fairy-tale valleys of Wales, historian Kat Hill tours us across the UK exploring the history of these wild shelters and her fellow wanderers – past and present. Bothy is a stirring, beautiful book for anyone who longs to run away to the wilds

Interactive books engage young children and capture their natural curiosity and These Are My Rocks encourages the development of important early-learning skills such as listening, choosing, matching, counting and moving by playing on the theme of interaction. These Are My Rocks is stylish, humorous, inclusive and utterly engaging – and a celebration of children’s love of collecting.
