“Walking helps us to connect with the world around us, and allows us to notice things that we might miss from inside a house or a car.”

To celebrate a very special anniversary, The Book Fairies are sharing i-SPY books up and down the UK! Happy 75th anniversary to i-SPY!

Who will be lucky enough to spot a copy of i-SPY On A Walk or Fossils and Rocks?

About i-SPY On A Walk:

Beat the boredom and take time out from screens with this pocket-sized book packed with facts, photos and fantastic spots for hours of fun!

Kids will have fun collecting points outdoors with more than 140 things to find. From plants and animals, to buildings and transport, they’ll learn all about their surroundings whether they’re on a walk in the town, countryside, in the mountains or by the sea. And once they’ve scored 1000 points, super-spotters can claim their official i-SPY certificate and badge.

About i-SPY Fossils and Rocks:

Kids will have fun collecting points outdoors with more than 140 things to find. From basalt to sandstone, ammonites to shark teeth, they’ll learn all about their appearance, texture, uses and where to find them.

With more than 30 i-SPY books to collect, there’s something for everyone!
