Stoke kids’ curiosity in the amazing natural world around them with a highly engaging presentation from three writers who make learning about science fun. Adrienne Mason uncovers why whales are “ecosystem engineers” who can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere in Whales to the Rescue. Rochelle Strauss also sails us into thinking about The Global Ocean—and what we need to do to begin to restore it—in a book as urgent as it is hopeful. CBC journalist Johanna Wagstaffe helps us understand why wildfires happen and how they affect our environment in Little Pine Cone. Prepare to be astonished at the magic of our environment! Grades 3–7.
