My Thoughts


We depend upon the natural world for every mouthful of food that we eat and indeed every lungful of air that we breathe.'


A selection of some of David Attenborough’s most memorable and wise quotes to remind all ages to act accordingly in ensuring the conservation of our planet.

She was commissioned to design a series of animal and plant illustrations for this tiny hardback, a purposeful little book that beautifully combines the wise words of the world renown conservationist.
