Rewild the World at Bedtime: Hopeful Stories from Mother Nature

This gorgeously illustrated, soothing treasury tells the true stories of how animals are healing our earth. Its comforting message makes it a perfect anthology for children at bedtime. Each hopeful story tells the tale of a real life rewilding or reintroduction project that is helping environments around the world to repair and thrive.
Read the story of how the fluffy, plucky eurasian beaver has been reintroduced to a river in Devon, UK. The little critter was once native here, but while she was gone, the river 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 to reduce 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. 
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, or aloud in class as the start to a topic about ecosystems, natural history or conservation.
