Description
By: Teddi Lynn Chichester | Illustrator: Jamie Green
We all need safe places to live and safe paths to travel. Animals, too.
Meet the people who are stitching the planet's habitats back together.
An NSTA Outstanding Science Trade Book for Students K-12
Let’s explore together how scientists, engineers, and lots of everyday people are working to make sure that the wildlife so essential to Earth’s health and beauty continues to freely move through the landscapes, waterways, and skylines of this richly inhabited planet.
Combining first-person reporting with research and stunning two-color art from illustrator Jamie Green, Wildlife Crossings of Hope takes a personal, in-depth look at wildlife crossings, corridor projects, and dam removal efforts around the world, from an underpass for elephants in Kenya to the Un-Dam the Klamath movement in the U.S. to the Mesoamerican Biological Corridor, which extends from southern Mexico to Panama.
Above all, this is a book that invites young people to think of themselves and wildlife as part of one community that urgently needs restoration and protection. Back matter includes actions for kids to take, a complete listing of the scientific names of all creatures discussed, source notes, a bibliography, an index, and more.
Books for a Better Earth™ are designed to inspire children to become active, knowledgeable participants in caring for the planet they live on.
A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection
