Rewild the World at Bedtime (e-book) (used book) | bookbook.eu

Description

This gorgeously illustrated, soothing treasury tells the true stories of how animals are healing our earth. It is the perfect anthology of hopeful stories for children at bedtime. Each story tells the tale of a real life rewilding or reintroduction story which has started the process of healing a particular environment or ecosystem around the world.
Read the story of how the fluffy, plucky eurasian Beaver has been reintroduced to rivers in Scotland. The little critter was once native here, but while she was gone, the river became swamped with reeds and without her dams, it flowed too fast and flooded nearby villages. Now she's back, all sorts of creatures are able to thrive again, and her dams have calmed the river so the people in the village no longer need to worry about their homes flooding. A single creature has the power to solve a whole host of problems, just by doing what comes naturally.
Stories like this are happening the world over, and show the far-reaching, positive ripple effects that happen when a keystone species is reintroduced to its natural environment. These animals are helping to heal our planet, we just need to give them the space and allow them to rebalance their ecosystems.
Children will be calmed and reassured to hear how when given the room to thrive, mother nature is wise beyond our wildest dreams and can begin to heal herself, if only we will let her.
Each story can be read at bedtime as a soothing story, or aloud in class as the start to a topic about ecosystems, different climates, natural history or conservation.
