Service Description

They’re so dead, they’re extinct. Imagine being the very last of your species, the last quagga, the last mammoth, the last auk, the last auroch. What would your legacy be? Paint dinosaurs and dodos, prevent and rebel against future extinctions and think about ClientEarth. There is no planet B and these amazing animals are proof of that. Sharing pictures of extinct animals is a good way of getting kids to understand that the climate emergency is real. We need animals and they need us; all life is interconnected. Use your skills and do what you can. Our book covers are currently made of leather and are necessarily expensive. While this will not change entire industries overnight, our micro-business/cottage industry (technically too tiny to classify as a small business) is looking into design-led, alternative, grown non-plastic leathers and will replace them when it becomes feasible. Ask me if you’d like more information as my husband has worked his entire life in this industry and we can conclude one thing: you will always get the best quality from small artisanal businesses that care, not multinational megacorps in fast fashion. Don’t go the way of the dodo. Make beautiful things that last. There are people out there with solutions and answers (see upcoming Book of Mushrooms) and also hope (see upcoming Book of the Future). Class includes a bespoke handmade leather cover to paint and free postage to anywhere in the world. Sent separately depending on production schedules. Make your own library of handmade Islamic style books!
