Rewilding is the process of returning animals or plants to their natural habitats, with the goal of restoring ecosystems and creating a greener future. In this informative and colourful hardback book, acclaimed conservation biologist and science communicator David A. Steen introduces children to the scientists who are working tirelessly to turn back the hands of time and make a positive impact on the planet. Rewilding projects featured in the book include the wolves that returned to Yellowstone National Park and dramatically improved the ecosystem, the beavers reintroduced to their old territories to build dams and stop flooding, and the Galápagos giant tortoises who beat the odds to survive extinction and return to their island home. Beautifully illustrated by award-winning artist Chiara Fedele, the book tells inspiring stories of wildlife brought back from the brink and shows how different species evolved to live side by side. By the end of the book, children will be left with a key message: it's not too late to fix the planet.
