Description

'No-one will protect what they don't care about.' Sir David Attenborough.

Baxter has everything a rabbit needs to be happy and healthy, except for some friends to play with. So Pollie, his owner, brings two rabbits home to stay, but will they be well-behaved, friendly and caring, or will they get up to mischief, be unkind and bully him? What could happen to make them change? And what will they, and Pollie, teach us about saving the planet along the way?

In this unique book, each chapter in the story has an environmental education issue woven into it, and then a set of questions which explores these issues further. Some of these issues include what animals need from their environment to survive and how we, as humans, are stopping them from obtaining these, and the need for clean water. It teaches children practical ways to care for animals and the planet, but also goes one step further and teaches us why we should care.

The last chapter looks at treating each other well, caring for each other and working together, which are often overlooked aspects of environmental education. This gives this book a fresh approach to environmental education and saving the planet.
