About this listen

THE NO 4 SUNDAY TIMES AND NO 1 SATURDAY TIMES BESTSELLER
A GUARDIAN AND TIMES BEST BOOK OF 2025
MICHAEL MORPURGO'S FIRST BOOK OF ADULT NON-FICTION IN FORTY YEARS

'A joyous meditation on the season of new beginnings' THE TIMES

'Uplifting and enchanting. A celebration of life by our master story-teller.' JOANNA LUMLEY

'Spring is a delight. His love and knowledge of the countryside are profound. We are all the richer for what he sees.' PHILIP PULLMAN

Michael Morpurgo has lived on a farm deep in rural Devon for more than forty years. In Spring, he observes the season unfold around him, as fragile new shoots emerge, buds turn to blossom and grey skies give way to blue.

As the natural world shakes off a long winter, Michael watches lambs being born on the farm, delights in a fanfare of bluebells in the woods, and sings to the birds, dressed in his wellies and dressing gown. He shares small moments of joy found in the back garden, as well as more dramatic encounters with sparrowhawks, hares and otters.

With new poems and reminiscences about childhood and springs gone by, this is an enchanting memoir of a season from one of the world's best-loved authors.

'Full of vibrant colour and most of all, heart and soul.' CLARE BALDING

'A book full of love for, and gentle humour about, the rural lifestyle amid the most cherished of seasons.' COUNTRYLIFE

'A reflective read - a gentle nostalgic step back in time to his life and his observations about how some things change and others don't.' DAILY MIRROR©2025 Michael Morpurgo (P)2025 Hodder & Stoughton Limited
