In this first title, A Bushveld Safari, Jabu the Shangaan guide takes the reader on a trail through the lowveld, or more specifically, through the Kruger National park. Chapters are organised to illuminate a range of topics, such as 'Bushveld supermarket' (items from nature that have practical applications), 'Feeding levels' (showing how and where different animals feed - from roots and grass through to the tree tops), 'Self defence' (how animals defend themselves), and 'The night shift' (focusing on the habits of nocturnal animals). In each scenario, Jabu discusses the balance and efficiency of nature, points out its extraordinary features , and explains how people have, in the past, lived in harmony with nature - and why it's important for us to continue to do so.
The latest anthology of prose and poetry from NY Writers Coalition's creative writing workshop for seniors at Emmanuel Baptist Church in Brooklyn, NY. This dynamic collection is full of life and color and characters sometimes so hilarious you'll be in tears laughing.
Get bushwise -- A desert Safari takes young readers on a journey of discovery through the deserts of southern Africa. Our San guide is Xau, who has lived in the desert all his life, and tells readers about the need to live in harmony with nature, and about some of the more extraordinary features of his arid land. He tells of how the San survive and thrive in the desert; how they find basic supplies in nature and get water from plants; how San children play, and how they can find direction using the stars. Readers learn about the different types of desert, about moving dunes and the amazing plants and trees that manage to survive in the sand and amongst the rocks; also about a host of creatures, big and small, that have made their home in the desert: dancing lizards and rolling spiders, the world's fastest beetle, the timid aardwolf - and that the sand beneath our feet is alive with life. This title offers a fascinating look at one of the Earth's most interesting habitats and the plants and creatures that make it their home.
