Have you met Ava and Pedro
These two Nature Heroes
Are passionate about nature
And the great outdoors
They would love your
Little readers
To join them on their adventures

Ava Loves Rescuing Animals
She lives with her grandparents
Who run an animal rescue centre
We join Ava as she is preparing
For a new animal arrival

We learn all about the different
Animals that come to the centre
We learn the reasons why
Different animals need care
We get ready for an adventure
With Ava
Packing a rucksack
With all the things we might need

On the adventure we see
A pond full of frogspawn
A lizard
We meet a whole host
Of animals on the farm
We greet a friendly dog
And spot some birds too

All through Ava’s adventure
The story is punctuated with facts
Such as a frog life cycle diagram
Illustrated notes about reptiles
A guide to mammals
A spread about
Record breaking animals
Readers can examine footprints
And learn about the
Importance of poo
Readers can learn about
Different animal groups
Ecosystems and food webs
Habitats and homes

Little readers and their grown ups
Learn how the things we do everyday
Impact all animals near and far
Ava shares some great guidelines
To help us all become
Animal heroes

Pedro Loves Saving The Planet
And he shares some terrific tips
For becoming a Planet Hero
Through Pedro’s pages
Little readers learn all about our home
Earth
We accompany Pedro to his school’s
Eco Cabin
On the way we learn about
Different modes of transport
And how good or bad
They are for the planet

At the cabin we learn about
Renewable and non-renewable energy
We see how the children have made homes
For local wildlife around the cabin
We see how the children conserve water
And how we can in our homes too
Through Pedro and his friends
Little readers are introduced to
The Seven Rs
Rethink
Refuse
Reduce
Reuse
Repurpose
Recycle
Rot it down

This is a great book
For inspiring children
And their grown ups
To be more mindful
About the things we buy
And the things we
Throw away

As a family we are
Trying really hard to
Think about food waste
And it was great to see
Pedro and his pals
Doing the same
We are also going to try
Growing our own food
Just like the children do
At the Eco cabin
We have been making
Pledges for Earth Day
And my little ones
Now call them their
Pedro Pledges

Nature Heroes is a great series
Written by Jess French and
Illustrated by Duncan Beedie

Full of fascinating facts
And playful illustrations
These books are
Perfect for getting children
To go outside and
Be part of the wild world
These books encourage children
To take action and use their voices
They have lots of handy hints
That can be made into
Achievable targets
Or ‘Pedro pledges’

We will think carefully before buying new things
We will treat wild places with kindness
We will grow something good to eat
We will try hard not to waste food or water
We will go out litter picking

How will you join Pedro and Ava
To become a Nature hero today?
