CONSERVATION WITH JANE GOODALL

An accessible board book series that shows how connected we are to nature and prompts questions about how even the youngest kids can help protect the environment.

Even little children can make a positive impact on the environment. Jane Goodall dedicated her life to studying chimpanzees and realized that sometimes people hurt the places where animals have always lived. She began to teach others how we can enjoy nature while also making sure that the homes of animals aren't suffering. Kids will come away from this book with questions about what animal habitats they can care for in their own community, and how conservation work makes sure all people and animals have a healthy home.
