Nature Forest

One bright day in December 2001, sixty-two-year-old Germaine Greer found herself confronted by an irresistible challenge in the shape of sixty hectares of dairy farm, one of many in southeast Queensland, Australia, which, after a century of logging, clearing, and downright devastation, had been abandoned to their fate. She didn’t think for a minute that by restoring the land she was saving the world. She was in search of heart’s ease.

Daisy and Dad set off to a nearby forest park for the day. What an adventure they would have! They met a salmon, a frog, and even encountered a gentle breeze whispering from the talking trees.

A fun, quirky tale for children aged eight to 12. The story is about a family of vegetarian tigers living in Tigeropolis, a tiger park deep in the foothills of the Himalayas.

But Tigeropolis is set to close...bulldozed to make way for a new motorway. The tigers set out to save their beloved park, but they soon realize they’ll need to rediscover some of their old skills: how to roar, how to hunt and, well, how to be tigers.

To many of us, tropical forests are the domain of movies and novels. These dense, primordial wildernesses are beautiful to picture but irrelevant to our lives. Jungle tells a different story. Archaeologist Patrick Roberts argues that tropical forests have shaped nearly every aspect of life on earth. They made the planet habitable, enabled the rise of dinosaurs and mammals, and spread flowering plants around the globe. New evidence also shows that humans evolved in jungles, developing agriculture and infrastructure unlike anything found elsewhere.
