There's a Lake in My Backyard!


Book Description

Lakes can be hundreds of miles long and thousands of miles deep—or small enough to swim across! It’s common for homes and roads to be built near lakes because they offer such beautiful scenery as well as needed resources. Readers are introduced to the lake biome that may be in their backyard through lakes’ main features, animals and plants that may live there, and examples of some of the largest lakes on Earth. Full-color photographs and small maps highlight this special biome as the main content simply touches on key science curriculum topics including food webs and water conservation.




Wild Your Garden


Book Description

"It's up to every single one of us to do our bit for wildlife, however small our gardens, and The Butterfly Brothers know just how that can be achieved." Alan Titchmarsh Join the rewilding movement and share your outdoor space with nature. We all have the potential to make the world a little greener. Wild Your Garden, written by Jim and Joel Ashton (aka "The Butterfly Brothers"), shows you how to create a garden that can help boost local biodiversity. Transform a paved-over yard into a lush oasis, create refuges to welcome and support native species, or turn a high-maintenance lawn into a nectar-rich mini-meadow to attract bees and butterflies. You don't need specialist knowledge or acres of land. If you have any outdoor space, you can make a difference to local wildlife, and reduce your carbon footprint, too. "Wildlife gardening is one of the most important things you can do as an individual for increasing biodiversity and mitigating the effects of climate change. From digging a pond to planting a native hedge, the Butterfly Brothers can help you every step of the way." Kate Bradbury
