When it comes to environmental sustainability, Uno’s Garden by Graeme Base not only tells us about it, but shows us in no uncertain terms. Through stunning illustrations, this picture book demonstrates the exponential impact of unchecked urbanisation, before restoring a more balanced equation. This is a book that plants the seeds of environmentalism for the youngest of readers, but it’s not only for the toddler set. In fact, any age group will dig it. It also doubles as a great resource for mathematical concepts and sparks the imagination with made-up plants, animals and buildings.
