RHS Under Your Feet - Author RHS

Discover the incredible world beneath the surface
RHS Under Your Feet takes young readers on an exciting journey underground — where wriggling worms, giant fungi, ancient fossils, and billions of microorganisms live in a hidden universe just beneath our toes. With fascinating facts, hands-on experiments, and vivid photography, this book reveals how soil supports all life on Earth and inspires children to explore what lies beneath their gardens, parks, and playgrounds.

Created in collaboration with the Royal Horticultural Society, this 64-page paperback is perfect for curious minds aged 6+, and ideal for school units on plants, ecosystems, geology, or sustainability.

Whether it's spotting burrowing animals, identifying soil types, or marvelling at the largest living organism on the planet, this book helps children become young scientists, environmental stewards, and keen observers of the natural world. 

Why we (and schools) love it:

• Cross-curricular powerhouse: Combines science, geography, and environmental education in a format that excites learners.
• Action-based learning: Includes fun experiments using real soil — perfect for inquiry-led learning and outdoor classrooms.
• Visually rich and well-researched: High-quality DK photography and RHS expertise make it a trusted and beautiful resource.
