Following the success of Up in the Canopy, Under the Starlit Sky gives readers the chance to explore the Bialowieza forest (in Poland and Belarus), layer by layer, as they climb an incredible oak tree at dusk, the largest in the forest and home to hundreds of species.
Owls hoot, wolves howl, fireflies glow and dormice scurry. With artwork as rich and dense as the forest itself, there is much to explore at every level, and readers can scour the forest floor, understory and canopy for the world's most secretive and elusive woodland creatures, learning more about the Bialowieza forest at every layer.
The final page of the book folds out to reveal a huge illustration of the oak tree and its many and varied animal inhabitants, perfect for spreading out on the floor and poring over for hours.
