‘I’d give Simon Barnes’s How to Be a Bad Botanist to anyone interested in what we take for granted, the plants around us. He writes as an everyman, not an expert, which makes the book accessible and appealing.' -- Michael Palin * Observer Best Books of 2024 * ‘I can’t think of a better introduction for an intelligent reader . . . a book whose time has come’ * Country Living * 'Funny and inspiring' * People's Friend *
