Inspiring the next generation of eco-warriors: a new children’s book by primary school teacher Michelle Dawn Sullivan.
Baxter has everything a rabbit could want—except friends. When his caring owner Pollie brings home two new rabbits, Baxter hopes for companionship. But will the newcomers be kind and caring, or will mischief and unkindness spoil the fun? What might inspire them to change—and what surprising lessons about kindness and the planet will they all learn together?
This unique and thoughtful book blends storytelling with environmental education. Each chapter introduces a real-world issue—like the importance of clean water or the basic needs animals rely on from their habitats—followed by a set of engaging questions to encourage discussion and deeper understanding.
Children will discover not just how to care for animals and the planet, but why it matters. The final chapter takes a powerful turn, focusing on empathy, teamwork, and treating each other with respect—an often-overlooked part of protecting our world.
