Wild Rescues - Amazing stories from a Wildlife Shelter
|
Urban wildlife has sparked an interest in our culture resulting in many magazine articles and even shows like BBC's Planet Earth II, that acknowledge the challenges in living close to wildlife. Through entertaining narratives and fascinating animal facts, this book encourages 8-12-year-olds to empathize with the wild animals in their neighborhoods. Empowering middle readers to become wildlife stewards can lead to a new generation of living in harmony and protecting our wild neighbors.

"Wild Rescues: Amazing Stories from a Wildlife Shelter" sets just the right tone for middle grade animal lovers. These stories, based on true urban wildlife rescues, will engage readers and offer valuable tips on how to care for injured animals so that many can be returned to the wild. Vivid photographs illustrate the hard work and dedication of the Westound Wildlife Shelter on Bainbridge Island, Washington, and their dedicated volunteers"
