The Planet in a Pickle Jar was named by The Guardian as one of the best children’s books and Alex and I can see why.

Our December book is a story of love between a Grandma and her two grandchildren and the beautiful planet we call home. The Planet in a Pickle Jar is a gorgeously illustrated picture book filled with awe and wonder as we join the siblings as they discover the way in which their grandma is saving the wonders of our planet one pickle jar at a time.

It’s a stunning call to action for us all, to take a moment to think about what we would miss if they were no longer here and now together we can make small changes to make a big difference.

Together with the book this activity box for your children would make a wonderful advent or Christmas present.
