As the natural world shakes off a long winter, Michael Morpurgo watches lambs being born on the farm, delights in a fanfare of bluebells in the woods, and sings to the birds while dressed in his wellies and dressing gown. He shares small moments of joy found in the back garden, as well as more dramatic encounters with sparrowhawks, hares and otters. With new poems and reminiscences about childhood and springs gone by, this is an enchanting meditation on a season from one of Britain’s best-loved authors.
