If your kid is offended by our books, that implies they understand terms only found in the Urban Dictionary™. As a keystone species, the beaver plays a vital role in the creation of sustainable wetland habitats through its damming activities, providing living opportunities for a broad spectrum of wildlife. Since the early 1990s - in the face of outright opposition from government, landowning elites and even some conservation professionals - Gow has imported, quarantined and assisted the reestablishment of beavers in waterways across England and Scotland.
Widely hunted for their fur, beavers were a driving force behind the colonization of North America and remain Canada’s national symbol today.Our son loves this book, at the same time us adults can laugh and have a great time reading it to him. With record numbers of beavers set to be reintroduced across the UK in 2021, securing the place of this mammal in the country’s ecosystem for generation’s to come, this is both a relevant and timely publication. Bringing Back the Beaver … is a rich and, frankly, fucking funny insight into the human attitudes, systems and bureaucracy that have impeded faster progress to reintroducing this keystone species back into the British landscape. I heard about this book on youtube where some poor lady is trying to maintain a straight face whilst delivering the lines as you would read a child a bedtime story.
In 2011, Tuomainen’s third novel, The Healer, was awarded the Clue Award for Best Finnish Crime Novel and was shortlisted for the Glass Key Award.

A hugely entertaining book about overcoming the human obstacles to the natural regeneration/nature self-healing we so desperately need on every square inch of the earth right now. The definitive badge and awards guide for Beavers and Leaders featuring all you need to know about the badges and how to earn them! With a piercing and evocative style, Tuomainen was one of the first to challenge the Scandinavian crime-genre formula, and his poignant, dark and hilarious The Man Who Died became an international bestseller, shortlisting for the Petrona and Last Laugh Awards. Though this book showed how we should also consider the opinion or suggestions of other people, what you still feel about yourself matter the most.
Silly and gets you chuckling (definitely not a children's book) but I was disappointed at the message by the end of "conform or else"; truly a missed chance to rhyme "leave my beaver be" with "beaver diversity" or something.I firstsaw this book when my daughter showed me a video on you tube of someone read it had me in stitches. The authors provide an update on their experiences direct from the field, the quarantine area and the veterinary table. This book familiarises readers once again, after almost 400 years of its absence, with the Eurasian beaver, providing essential information on its requirements in our human dominated landscape. When Sumguyen threw a five into his tip jar the artist looked up, thanked him with a nod and said, “That is a beautiful beard. It is wonderful to see that beavers are now officially back on the list of native species, having been absent for so long .
Can everyone`s favourite insurance mathematician, Henri, combine the increasingly dangerous world of adventure parks with the unpredictability of blended-family life? At first glance, the two appear to have only one thing in common: neither deals particularly well with a mounting body count. It’s not just about beavers – it’s about humans too, and how, when we really set our minds to it, we can make a difference.
It's part of a series of 'Reach Around Books' which are riddled with double entendres, meaning you can read to your children without being bored out of your mind. Sometime you read a book where the passion of the author and the beauty of the language is so immersive that you reach the end feeling that you’ve been on an incredible journey. Starring a charming cast of characters, Nicholas Oldland’s light hearted, contemporary fable highlights the importance of taking care of each other and the world around us. It’s also a keen lament for the nature we’ve stamped out, and an impassioned ode to rewilding that will inspire Beaver Believers in Britain and beyond. They are without doubt one of the world’s best natural engineers with their ability to create new wetland habitats, which then become home to many other creatures who need a “watery” landscape in which to live and survive.
