SWONclear | Sep 13, 2023 |   INVASIVE SPECIES are living things that are not native to a particular location. They often thrive in their introduced area pushing out other flora and fauna. These out-of-place plants and animals cause harm to the environment and economy causing a wide range of problems. Ask students to learn about an invasive species and debate possible solutions to the problem. Read the recently published graphic nonfiction for youth, then learn more at the websites: BEWARE THE BURMESE PYTHONS written by Etta Kaner with illustrations by Phil Nicholls uses a comic format to share information about invasive animal species. This attractive work of graphic nonfiction successfully introduces youth to the destruction of invasive animal species and the question of how to address the problem. Each two-page, newspaper-type spread introduces a different animal and its impact. The book concludes with a glossary, sources, and additional information.

"What do cane toads, cats and Burmese pythons have in common? They're invading our ecosystems! Learn about 10 common invasive species from around the world, exploring how they got into new ecosystems and the damage they've caused. With text organized in all kinds of fun ways, from posters to newspaper articles to comic strips, this funny, highly visual book will keep young readers engaged. Each section provides basic information about one invasive animal, including their most distinctive features and where they came from, before telling the story of how they arrived in a new place. Humans, of course, are actually the ones responsible for moving invasive species around the world -- but luckily, we're also trying to solve the problem. Readers will learn about how scientists are working to contain each invasive species and that it is possible to solve environmental issues. Back matter includes sources, a glossary and an index."-- Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |
