Welcome to Tales from Mother Earth

Nature storybooks for children with audio. Perfect for ages 3–10 teaching wildlife conservation and care for the planet.

In a world where our environment is changing faster than ever, helping children feel connected to nature has never been more important. Research and experience show that when children develop empathy for wildlife early on, they are far more likely to grow into adults who care for and protect the planet.

Our stories are designed to nurture that connection — encouraging children to slow down, look closer, and discover the wonder in the world around them. Whether it’s a bee pollinating flowers or a hedgehog navigating its habitat, every story opens a door to understanding and action.

“Tales from Mother Earth story books and materials are outstanding for children and teachers.”

“I welled up when Bandit and Willow became homeless… thank goodness for bird houses!”

“Delightful and ingenious storytelling that shares a deep love of the natural world.”

“My 6-year-old daughter absolutely loves these books and returns to them again and again.

As a parent, it’s incredibly reassuring to see stories that not only captivate her imagination but also teach her about our wildlife in such a thoughtful and engaging way. It feels like more than just reading, it’s helping her grow a genuine curiosity and care for the natural world.”

“My youngest daughter really loves all animals.

She also was afraid of bees, but after reading about Phoebe the Bee she is now not afraid and realises that bees need our help and looking after them is a must.”

Home of Phoebe the Bee and Tales from the Countryside Series

Phoebe the Bee was where it all began — the very first story in the Tales from the Countryside series. Inspired by the vital role bees play in our ecosystem, Phoebe’s story was created to help children understand just how important even the smallest creatures are to life on Earth.

Since then, Phoebe has been joined by a growing cast of countryside characters, including Spike and Stanley. The collection now also features our fourth title, Bandit the Blue Tit, launched this year. Bandit’s story shows children how simple actions — like adding a nest box to a garden fence — can bring nature closer to home and make a real difference to the small birds that depend on these safe spaces.

Give your child more than just a story — give them a connection to the world around them.

Explore our collection and start a journey that inspires curiosity, kindness and care for nature. Together, we can help raise a generation that not only understands the planet — but protects it.
