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.

From the best-selling author and rewilding pioneer Isabella Tree, When We Went Wild is a heartwarming, sustainably printed picture book about the benefits of letting nature take the lead, inspired by real-life rewilding projects. Nancy and Jake are farmers. They raise their cows and pigs, and grow their crops. They use a lot of big machines to help them, and spray a lot of chemicals to get rid of the weeds and the pests. That's what all good farmers do, isn't it? And yet, there is no wildlife living on their farm. The animals look sad. Even the trees look sad! One day, Nancy has an idea... what if they stopped using all the machines, and all the chemicals, and instead they went wild? The author’s own experience of rewilding her estate at Knepp in West Sussex, England, has influenced conservation techniques around the world that are bringing nature back to the countryside and bringing threatened species back from the brink. Ivy Kids brings you beautiful, sustainably printed books to rewild your child. They are hopeful, joyful stories and nonfiction about nature and the environment that are charmingly illustrated and printed on 100% post-consumer recycled paper, locally in the US, and using renewable energy.
