Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Kew: Darwin and Hooker: A story of friendship,
Book Synopsis'A beautifully illustrated book which shows the importance of teamwork in developing new ideas'Books for Keeps On 24th November 1859, Charles Darwin’s On the Origin of Species was first published, selling out almost immediately. Describing the now well known theory that humans evolved through a process called natural selection, it became an instant classic and cemented Darwin as one of the greatest biologists of all time. However, he couldn’t have done it without the support, encouragement and advice from those who believed in him. None more so than Joseph Hooker, his friend, confidant and fellow collector, who supported and helped Darwin when he didn’t dare ask anyone else. Hooker, too, had his own adventures and made his own discoveries – many of which not only aided Darwin, but went on to change what the world knew about plants. Becoming head of Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, he came to be one the world’s most influential botanists. Across many years, countless adventures and numerous letters, this captivating and wonderfully illustrated book tells the story of one of greatest friendships to happen to science. Publishing in partnership with Royal Botanic Gardens, Kew, this book will show children how teamwork, curiosity, openness and trust can be the greatest tools a scientist will ever need. They might even help you change the world. Darwin and Hooker was shortlisted and highly commended in the ASE Book the Year Award 2023Trade ReviewA fascinating, compelling read that shows young readers the importance of curiosity, determination and teamwork in scientific endeavour. * Red Reading Hub *Joe Todd-Stanton’s enticing illustrations break up and illuminate the text, helping to make it accessible to older primary school readers. * Red Reading Hub *A beautifully illustrated book which foregrounds the friendship between Charles Darwin and Joseph Hooker, a scientist in his own right.

Annick Press Ltd Evolution Under Pressure: How We Change Nature
Book SynopsisImmersive non-fiction with STEM and social justice themes that proves that the future of the environment is in our hands–and helps pave the way forward.Evolution isn’t just a thing of the past. It is happening right now, in every species across the world–and our influence on the future of the plants and animals around us is much bigger than we might think. A closer look at the science behind evolution shows how human behaviors like hunting, farming, and urban development have contributed to major physical changes in everything from rhinos to pigs to lizards. And these changes impact us in turn–triggering environmental shifts and contributing to climate change. The good news is there’s hope: by learning to see how everything is connected, we can weigh the consequences of our choices and help shape a world that works for plants, animals, and humans alike.Making connections across anthropology, biology, and ecology, award-winning author Yolanda Ridge takes an intersectional approach to a challenging topic–examining the factors that influence human behavior while looking forward to explain the changes we can make and the ethics of those choices. Profiles of young activists and innovators highlight the ways readers can contribute to restoring ecological balance, while vibrant illustrations by Dane Thibeault evoke the energy and beauty of the natural world we are working to preserve.

Groundwood Books Ltd ,Canada The Year of Fire
Book SynopsisA timely new edition of a story about a wildfire from beloved children's book creators Teddy Jam and Ian Wallace. It's maple syrup time and an old grandfather tells his granddaughter about the great fire of 1919, when the whole county caught fire and burned for a year. No one knew how it started, but every able-bodied man, woman and child tried to fight the fire. The grandfather and his brother children at the time helped fill buckets of water from the creek. Only the snow finally seemed able to smother it. But the next spring they were all amazed to discover that the fire had kept going all winter in the soil, destroying the roots of the trees as it burned. Now a new forest has grown over the scar, but the grandfather can still see the traces of the fire and show them to his grandchild. At a time when wildfires are causing increasing devastation, this new edition of a classic children's book recounts an event that changed the lives of all who experienced it and brings a perspective of hope in its portrayal of recovery after the fire.

Verso Books Fighting in a World on Fire: The Next
Book SynopsisYoung people are inheriting a world of climate catastrophe. Young people are also one of the strongest forces leading movements for climate justice, and to halt the fossil fuel emissions that are making our Earth unlivable. As Greta Thunberg and the Fridays for the Future movement have made clear, solutions offered by adults are far too little, far too late: the measures in unenforceable international agreements won't halt our reliance on fossil fuels, or take the drastic steps humans need to take in order to keep our planet livable.What kinds of drastic steps are needed? What kind of bold actions can the climate justice begin using to bring a stop to climate destruction, and that can be employed alongside existing strategies of mass protest, awareness, and legal appeals? Why does our society consider profit for oil companies more important than the future of young people and the health of our shared environment? In this adaptation of Andreas Malm's best-selling book on the need for a bolder, more confrontational climate justice movement, How to Blow Up a Pipeline these urgent questions are brought to the most important audience of all: those who are growing up in a world on fire.Trade ReviewReading this brilliant book I found myself underlining whole passages, ticking repeatedly in the margins and inwardly cheering. Every school library should buy a copy. Every concerned parent should make sure their children have access to it. -- Tom Tolkien * School Reading List *The intensity and urgency of the need for meaningful climate action comes through loud and clear...This book has two goals: to provoke strong reactions and to create committed activists. Readers will find much to think about. * Booklist *Four hefty chapters chart a progressive path for a young would-be environmental activist, with information presented through a global lens...A persuasive, if provocative, polemic tackling an important subject. * Kirkus Reviews *A YA adaptation of a controversial missive on climate activism that encourages drastic measures to save the planet's-and this generation's-future. It focuses on why past movements haven't been sufficient to change the tide in environmental justice; nonviolence and civil disobedience are just not enough. * School Library Journal *I would recommend Fighting in a World on Fire to any young activist looking to learn more about the climate movement. It serves a great purpose as an introductory book into not only the world of the climate movement, but also reading political books in general. -- Dylan Williams * Socialist Worker *
