Mammals Mighty and Meek
Author: Katie Bagli
Publisher: Shree Book Centre
ISBN: 9395453869
Category : Juvenile Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 156
Book Description
Isn’t it wonderful to know that ours is the only one of the eight planets in the solar system to have the kind of life that it has? And of this life, mammals appear to be the most evolved. Unlike the other groups of animals, mammals express emotions, can reason and many of them can even analyse situations. Mammals have been around on the planet for a long time. Fossil records have established that they were even there alongside the dinosaurs. Moreover, mammals are found everywhere—in burrows underground, flapping their way through the skies, in the oceans, in grasslands, swamps, mangroves, extremely high altitudes, deserts, forests—even at the poles. The species of mammals vary from habitat to habitat, but they all play an important role in the intricate web of life. Many of the mammal species face a threat to their existence, what with infrastructure development being given priority and their homes—the forests—shrinking! It is the need of the hour to get ourselves sensitized to these beautiful creatures that we share the planet with. This book, Mammals Mighty and Meek, is a small effort to celebrate mammals and to learn more about them through its quirky stories, fun poems and amusing skits, all woven around true facts. So do turn the pages, read and enjoy.

Bluebird Seasons
Author: Mary Taylor Young
Publisher: Chicago Review Press
ISBN: 1641608153
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 215
Book Description
"This wonderful book is faithful both in its witness to the world's beauty and to our need to act now to preserve something of that wonder and grace. It brings the bracing air of the Rockies to us all." —Bill McKibben, author of The End of Nature In this A Sand County Almanac for the twenty-first century, nature writer and zoologist Mary Taylor Young tells the story of the growing effects of climate change on her land in the pine-covered foothills of southern Colorado. Climate change wasn't yet on the public radar when Young and her husband bought their piece of the wild in 1995. They built a cabin, set up a trail of bluebird nest boxes, and began a nature journal of observations, delighting in the ceaseless dramas, joys, and tragedies that are the fabric of life in the wild. But changes greater than the seasonal cycles of nature became evident over time: increasing drought, wildfires, bears delaying hibernation, and the decline of familiar birds and appearance of new species. Their journal of sightings over twenty-five bluebird seasons, she realized, was a record of climate change happening, not in an Indonesian rainforest or on an Antarctic ice sheet but in their own natural neighborhood. Using the journal as a chronicle of change, Young tells a story echoed in everyone's lives and backyards. But it's not time to despair, she writes. It's time to act. Young sees hope in the human ability to overcome great obstacles, in the energy and determination of young people, and in nature's resilience, which the bluebirds show season after season.
