Can we save endangered species?
Yes, we can!

The environment is constantly changing. People are building roads, houses, bridges, and cities. This development has damaged the natural habits of many native organisms. In this important book readers are introduced to a variety of these endangered species.

Engaging text and stunning illustrations highlight the plight of these animals and plants and suggest ways to help restore their natural environments. From the beautiful cui-ui to the Puerto Rican parrot, readers will begin to understand how each living species contributes to our planet and how we can strive to save each of them.
David Dobson teaches geology at Guilford College. In his spare time Dave likes to create computer games, play soccer and the tuba, and write. He lives with his wife and two children in North Carolina.
