Dear John,
We know many parents and stewards of young people are hungry for frank, educational stories. They want books that can help kids see that they're a vital part of nature and empower them
to work toward solutions while reacquainting them with the natural world's endless and infinite supply of marvels and wonder.
In poring over a slew of beautiful, recently released books that aim to engage youngsters with the natural world, we were most drawn to those reads that managed to distill global heating
and other eco hot-button topics into simple, impactful prose while also providing laughs and visual delights.
Check out the full list from Sierra magazine! <http://click.emails.sierraclub.org/?qs=97965a3fecf794c9485c74e6f31d2b0e6b1d901f373b07c32ad34720543ebaf4874c3bf7baa9285d5bb9f4214907be4b6719374b2938e3d3a

Finding Home: Amazing Places Animals Live by Mike Unwin
Bloomsbury Children's Publishing, ages 5-8
Finding Home introduces readers to 20 different animal habitats ranging from polar bear dens deep beneath the Arctic snow to eagles' treetop nests! Illustrator Jenni Desmond renders
each species' home with breathtaking realism (almost all these animals' eyes carry Mona Lisa magic), and grown-ups will pick up plenty of trivia too.

Safe Crossing by Kari Percival
Chronicle Books, ages 3-8
When the narrator learns that new road development in her community is endangering frogs and salamanders, she arms herself with amphibian habitat knowledge and rolls up her sleeves.
The result is a fascinating glimpse into how local government works and how youth concern can catalyze real social change.
