Background - white squares outlined with thin black lines. A book lies in the middle, we see the book cover from Birds Eye view.

A book lies on top of a brown wooden table, we see the book cover from Birds Eye view. The cover mimics a light green doctors prescription.

Background - light green ink blotches. A book cover sits atop and we look at it from Birds Eye view. It is zoomed in on a tennis court, part of the net is visible and a shadow of a person lies across the floor perpendicular to the net. There are red sliders where the shadow of the feet should be. In capital letters at the top of the image reads “GHOSTS OF” and at the bottom the author “DIANA KHOI NGUYEN”

On cracked pavement sits a book, we see the cover from Birds Eye view. It is mostly grey, with a slanted pink and black roof covered in barbed wire with a small multicoloured sketch of a bird holding a daisy sitting on top of it. The title reads in thin black capitals “I WILL NEVER SEE THE WORLD AGAIN” and at the bottom in smaller white writing the author “Ahmet Altan”

How far would you go for a hobby?

William Hamilton (1730-1803) developed a passion for volcanoes and loved getting up close and personal in the name of science.

We're quite fond of books here at the NHM Library and Archives, and we suspect these owls from John Gould's Birds of Great Britain know just how we feel.

An image from ‘Stockingopolis’ by Tatyana Feeney of a little girl, Lucy, and a little boy, Ben, with paintbrushes in their hands ready to paint the grey sheep in between them. The sheep has a blob of pink paint on it, as does Lucy’s paintbrush, and Ben’s has blue. They’re all standing on a patch of green grass with a white background behind them.
