Secret Sky Garden

Product Information

I have even talked the head into a little revamp of the library so that we can display them properly! Classic speakeasy-style, the entrance is located in a parking garage, shared with the famous and popular night club Illusion. The book also serves as a nice prompt for chats about green spaces and why they need looking after– especially in our cities.

Yourself and Bob are much cherished in our booky world and I personally really appreciate everything that you do. You guys were so fab and Dawn was such a lovely presence in the schools - I will absolutely be in touch next time I'm in your neck of the woods. Tickets are available to book online, and will get you a free spot at the Sky Garden on weekdays (between 10am-6pm) or weekends (between 11am – 9pm). Illustrator Fiona Lumbers uses colour and layout cleverly to chart the transformation from urban desolation to a sumptuous explosion of nature.

I was at my last school for 4 years and we had ********* book fairs every term – and every term, I was disappointed by the narrow range of books. Sky View at La Cigale Hotel has quickly become one of the hottest nightspots and party spots throughout Doha. Funni loves hearing the planes and watching the sights from the abandoned airport car park, but she feels that something is missing.

Reading through with sound effects would be fun, for the whine of the plane or the bells of city square. I haven't charted out my visits for the summer term, but I'm sure there are several in the south) and thanks so much for being so fantastic! Through our work, children and young people feel connected to those around them, develop a sense of belonging to their local, national and global communities and take action to create welcoming, kind and connected communities. Funni is a lonely girl who spends a lot of her spare time in an abandoned rooftop car park next to the airport. With floor-to-ceiling glass windows, this lush urban jungle provides fantastic views of the famous rooftops of London, with an open-air terrace providing views across the Thames.

It’s a fantastic independent book seller that will actually be responsive and select appropriate books for you. When Zoo sees the result of Funni’s effort from overhead, he determines to discover it, and its creator. g. big teeth to eat insects, sticky petals to catch flies, long trumpet like flowers to make music etc. When a little boy spots the startling splash of colour (against the grey) on a flight, he decides to try to find it.

Then again, what of the passenger, high in the clouds overhead, seeking hope in the perpetual greyness of the scene below? She said that if she managed to make it, she would invite her friends for a tea party under it so they could guess the wonderful smells whenever the wind blew. It was such a pleasure to meet you both, and I really appreciated how smoothly and professionally you ran everything. Feeling something is missing, she works hard to clean the place, plant and care for a garden, transforming the place into a beautiful and cozy playground for herself. Like Number 7 Evergreen Street, it seems this allegory of hope from Linda Sarah and Fiona Lumbers inspires and heightens our senses.Because summer was already upon us when we read the book, we were unable to plant seeds in time to bloom so she is adamant that we are going to sow flower seeds in spring next year for Larra’s secret sky garden 2020. One day, a little boy, Zoo, spots the square of colour amongst the grey from an incoming flight, and decides to try to find it. It is beautifully written with lovely, detailed illustrations which really show the transformational effect of the secret garden on the environment and of making a friend on Funni.

If you're looking for swanky views over London for free, look no further than the Sky Garden; the 43rd floor paradise with sights across the Thames. So Funni decides to create a garden in the neglected space and after weeks of careful nurture, her garden in the sky takes shape.

From here you’ll be able to gaze out at The Shard, The Gherkin, St Paul’s Cathedral, Tower Bridge and, of course, the River Thames.

Enter the beautiful, inspiring world of Secret Sky Garden: where no one can stop one child turning an unloved bit of the city into a little piece of green paradise. Tickets are only valid for the date and time stated on the ticket and have a time limit of 1hr from time of entry. There are parts of the story that could be fun for children to join in with eg the repeated ‘definitely’ or Zoo’s comments eg ‘I must be dreaming’.
