Not a Weed! A Rebel Guide to Pavement Plants

A 36-page botany book for primary-school kids, but not the flowery, pastel, “press this in a notebook” kind. This one’s loud, bold and a bit punk.

These plants are the rebels of the plant world - growing through cracks in the pavement, breaking rules, thriving wherever they want, no permission needed.

We wanted to make botany feel fun, exciting and accessible, especially for kids who might not see themselves in traditional nature books.

It’s interactive, too! Kids can “collect” plants Pokémon-style by ticking off FOUND IT! boxes as they spot them in real life.

We made this book because we believe learning about plants should feel like an adventure, not a lesson – and because weeds deserve better PR!
