Rosey Stink Badger / by Selfors, Suzanne.; Kaulitzki, Ramona.;
When Willow agreed to house-sit for her grandmother, Mother Nature, she had no idea how difficult it would be. The songbirds rudely wake her up at dawn. Mrs. Hedgehog serves worm pancakes for breakfast. And the to-do list is even longer than it was yesterday! To make matters worse, a feisty queen bee has moved into the chicken coop, sending Mother Nature's beloved chickens into a tizzy. There's only one critter who can catch the bee's monarch: the stink badger. But no one ever visits or talks to them because, if disturbed, they'll spray a horrid stench from their bottoms. Can Willow be brave enough to care for the natural balance in Mother Nature's absence by facing one dangerous foe to get rid of another?Ages 6-9.

Planting for pollinators : creating a garden haven / by Angel, Heather,author,photographer.;
"Insect pollinators not only bring joy to our gardens, they also provide an essential service for our planet. Without bees, flies, hoverflies, butterflies, moths and beetles, some of our favourite foods, flowers and plants would cease to exist. Whether you have a large garden, an urban balcony or just a window box, planting to encourage pollinators is a fantastic and surprisingly easy first step in creating a wildlife-friendly space. Planting for Pollinators features a wide range of plants, with guidance on the best ways to nurture lawns and verges, pollinator predation and tips on watching and photographing wildlife. Beautifully illustrated throughout with images from award-winning wildlife photographer Heather Angel, this essential guide will show you how plants communicate with insects, and why it's so important to protect our pollinators. Organised by season and featuring more than 100 plant species - including bulbs, annuals, perennials, shrubs and climbers - this practical guide will help you to discover the short- and long-term benefits of having a variety of pollinators visit your garden."--Back cover.
