Apart from creating pictures, Seb's favourite pastimes are making toys from wood, playing with his children and climbing the Cotswold hills on his vintage road bike.

Mini Travellers
Deep in the woods, beneath the trees, the animals are gathering. It's time for Mrs Owl's Forest School!
Join Mouse, Squirrel, Fox and Rabbit as they learn about wildlife, try something new, get creative and - of course - make friends! Today as they are taught about trail-making, they'll follow clues to find treasure, discovering along the way that nature might be the most precious gift of all.
Embracing the forest school focus on play and exploration - and written in consultation with an expert - this book will have little ones itching to get outdoors and have adventures of their own, whether or not they attend a forest school.
Seb Braun (illustrator of Spinderella by Julia Donaldson, the Daddy Grizzle books by Mark Sperring, Baby on Board and author-illustrator of Raj and the Best Day Ever) creates charming, detailed scenes that perfectly blend together picture-book storytelling with non-fiction details. In his spare time, Seb volunteers as a Cubs and Squirrels leader (part of the Scouts movement), and his love and knowledge of the outdoors shines through on every page.
