Day five of my #tree #adventcalendar & here's the Bowl Oak, one of my besties as my daughter would say. It holds onto its leaves late. I call it the Bowl Oak coz it has a bowl in its bole where you can sit & watch the water meadow from a new angle.
I'd love to see your arboreal besties...

Twice a year we make catalogues to share our upcoming books with booksellers and journalists and all kinds of interested (hopefully interested!) folk.
In recent years we’ve been commissioning illustrators for the covers: it’s become a real highlight for me to see what they come up with.
