Discover a World of Wildlife with Neal Layton
All over the world, animals and plants are disappearing, and it’s a big problem. But you can help to make things better! Author, illustrator and environmentalist Neal Layton shows you how every plant and animal on Earth is part of an amazing web of life and will get you excited about how YOU can keep our planet bursting with energy.
This event was created especially for school pupils taking part in our Baillie Gifford Schools Gala Day and was filmed live at the 2021 Edinburgh International Book Festival. It is also enjoyable for children and families to watch.
