At long last, irrepressible panda cub Ping is leaving the safety of his nature reserve to embark on a journey of a lifetime! Will Ping and his new friend Little Bear enjoy their freedom, or will the shadows, and the bandits, and the lurking snow leopards have them running for home-sweet-home?

You might think that koalas are boring, just because all they do is eat eucalyptus leaves and sleep. For 19 hours a day. But you’d be wrong. They’re not boring. They’re just lazy. They’re chilling, basically, kicking back and catching some rays in the treetops, and staying out of trouble. At least, that’s what our cool koala buddies Dude and Bro, and little brother Squirt were doing, till one day they wake up to find they’ve missed their transfer from the koala sanctuary to the zoo across town....

The next book in the Awesome Animals series – starring the world’s funniest animals! From the author of the hilarious World of Norm series, another crazy Koala Calamity.

Dude, Bro, and Squirt are pros at doing…nothing. They can do nothing all day long - nothing but munch on their favourite treat, lie in the sunshine, and think about moving.

She’s so lively that when the boys lose track of her they soon discover she’s no longer in the tree tops.… She’s heading for the beach!

Why should the bright and flashy animals get all of the attention? If you look closely at some seemingly ordinary animals, you may find a colorful surprise. A lizard is brown. A hippo is gray.

Ecology for Kids helps children aged 10 and up better understand the complexity of the natural world and the web of life. Topics covered include predator and prey relationships, and how creatures are interconnected via food chains. The book also explores how these food chains can be impacted by extinction events and the potential impacts of global warming and actions that can be taken to reduce the impact. This is a great guide to some important biology topics for interested middle schoolers.
