November 2019 edition: Britain's Amazing Islands
They’re full of great things, like nature reserves, cliffs, hidden coves and mountains! But which island has seaweed-eating sheep? Or hairy snails? Or the most famous rockpools, packed with creatures? Or a perfectly preserved ancient village that’s older than the pyramids? We’ll tell you which islands are puffin-packed. We’ll see why people count seals on the Farne Islands, why Eigg is the most eco-friendly island of all – and lots more!
Many of these islands are uninhabited by humans. Should we be allowed to visit them or should we leave the wildlife alone? Should we keep taking boat trips to see the whales and dolphins, or is that harmful, too? Let's have a debate!
Dare to investigate the islands' incredible folklore? They are said to be full of mythical creatures, including a shape-shifting water horse, the hairy buggane, and the ‘dog of the dead’ of the Channel Islands, with its glowing red eyes? Don’t worry, none of these creatures are real. WE HOPE!
What is the difference between a recurring subscription and one-off subscription?
Recurring subscriptions offer convenient three-monthly, six-monthly and 12-monthly payment plans, which automatically renew. (You can cancel your renewal at any time in your online account.)
One-off gift subscriptions are one-off payments. You can specify the preferred delivery date for a gift subscription, while recurring subscriptions start immediately with the current issue.
When will the first issue of my subscription be despatched?
Recurring subscription: Your first issue is usually despatched within 48 hours. If you place your order between the 20th and 28th of each month, your subscription starts with the next month’s issue, which is shipped at the end of the month.
One-off subscription: Choose the 'Birthday' option to select your preferred 'deliver by' date or choose 'ASAP' to have your first issue despatched within 48 hours.
Christmas gift: Your subscription will start with our December issue. It will be despatched early December in a red envelope marked "OPEN ON 25 DECEMBER".
How often and when will my child receive the magazine?
Eco Kids Planet is published 11 times a year, monthly except for a combined July/August bumper issue. You should expect to receive a new issue at the beginning of each month.
How do I notify you about a change of address?
