5-8 Infant/Junior
An ecologically aware, conservation based story about the animals on the plains of Africa and the effects, both good and bad, of the intervention of humans. It's attractively illustrated with clear pictures of the landscape and the animals, and the message is less simplistic than is sometimes the case. This is a thoughtful book and would stimulate some interesting discussion.
