This middle grade edition of the groundbreaking bestseller by Doug
Tallamy will inspire kids to use their backyard to help save the
planet. Douglas W. Tallamy awakened thousands of readers to an
urgent situation: wildlife populations are in decline because the
native plants they depend on are fast disappearing. His solution?
Plant more natives. In this middle grade adaptation of the New York
Times bestseller Nature's Best Hope, Tallamy outlines his vision
for a grassroots approach to conservation that everyone can
participate in regardless of age. In Nature's Best Hope (Young
Readers' Edition), Tallamy empowers kids to use their own yards to
help combat the negative effects of climate change. He does so by
breaking down complex concepts into simple terms and real-world
examples that kids can easily grasp. Black and white photographs
help further clarify concepts. In addition to sharing the science,
Tallamy encourages kids to take direct action. Some of these ideas
include planting an oak tree (one of the most important tree
species) at home. If that's too large of a task, he suggests they
can plant asters--a beautiful flower whose pollen bees use to feed
their young. By helping the next generation see that they have
power and agency over our collective future, this empowering book
will drive home the positive point that kids are truly nature's
best hope.
