The story of a polar bear, named Cool, whoa s family and habitat
are being impacted by global warming. As a well-known footballer
with The Ready Bears, he decides to take action to try and make
humans change their ways.
Flooded is the funny and beautifully illustrated tale of animals
who live in a city that is ever so slowly flooding. The flood comes
gradually at first. All the animals ignore the obvious and go about
their busy lives, disjointed from one another and preoccupied by
their own problems. Eventually, the flood water reaches a height
that they can no longer ignore and they have to work together to
save their city. All the animals join together in a line and pull
out the plug that is drowning the city. This is an exceptionally
illustrated story that teaches a message not to let problems fester
and with a little team work and community spirit, no problem is
insurmountable.
