Let's Save Antarctica:
Why we must protect our planet.
Discover why we must protect Antarctica from climate change.
Home to millions of penguins, ancient dinosaur fossils and huge blue whales,
Antarctica is our last great wilderness.
This fascinating picture book brings to life this extreme and exciting continent for young children,
exploring its icy
landscape and extraordinary wildlife. It also shows the incredible scientific research that happens
there and therefore
why it is so important that we act to protect this special part of the planet from climate change and
plastic pollution.

Polar
Investigate blubber using icy water and learn
about the Antarctica food chain through interactive cards. Discover polar habitats and map the
region.

Water
This topic takes an in-depth look into how the
Water cycle works and particularly the differences between fresh and salt water. Go on a body
of
water field trip and discover the lost art of filtering dirty water into cleaner water. Your

Catherine Barr
Catherine wrote her first book The Story of Life after searching in vain for the story
(rather
than text book) of
evolution when her two girls were at primary school. She has now written over 35 books for
children to share her
curiosity, start conversations and inspire action to care for our natural world. Covering
global
issues from climate
change to freshwater and conservation, Catherine’s books are aimed at children and the
grown-ups
who read with them.
