Critics Review
Informative, beautiful and hopeful! * Ian Eagleton *In this book you’ll track the journeys of seven amazing animals, and learn how people around the world are creating special channels – wildlife corridors – to keep them safe and help them on their way. * The Week Junior Book Club *Small vividly recounted snippets of text speckle the pictures, making the illustrations doubly memorable. Enquiring minds will have a field day and the uninterested just might become interested. This book can be a textbook or just a superb story. A bedtime read or a reference book for 6–12-year-olds. * Armadillo Magazine *
