Summary

In 'The Jay Bird Who Went Tame', John Breck explores the complex themes of identity, freedom, and conformity through the story of a wild bird who chooses to give up its freedom for a life of safety and comfort. Written in a straightforward style with a touch of whimsy, this book will appeal to readers of all ages. Breck's use of anthropomorphism and symbolism adds depth to the narrative, making it a thought-provoking read for those interested in moral dilemmas and philosophical questions. The juxtaposition of the wild and the tame serves as a metaphor for the human experience, inviting readers to ponder the choices they make in their own lives. John Breck, a renowned nature writer and philosopher, draws on his deep understanding of the natural world to craft a story that challenges conventional notions of freedom and captivity. His background in environmental studies and ethical philosophy informs his exploration of the moral implications of domestication and the allure of security. 'The Jay Bird Who Went Tame' showcases Breck's talent for blending storytelling with philosophical insights, making it a unique and engaging read for those seeking both entertainment and intellectual stimulation. I highly recommend 'The Jay Bird Who Went Tame' to readers looking for a thought-provoking and beautifully written book that delves into the complexities of human nature and the allure of comfort. Breck's narrative skill and philosophical depth make this book a compelling and enriching read for anyone interested in exploring deep questions about identity, freedom, and the choices we make in life.

    The second fantastic book in the series about four friends who want to make the world a better place.
Izzy and Poppy are being taken for a walk along the river by Poppy's boisterous dog, Billy, when he decides to chase after a water-rat. Both animals land in the river, which is so choked with rubbish that Billy can't get out. His paw is stuck in an old bike wheel and the girls must work to free him. The adventure gives Izzy a great idea for their next project, though, and it's a very very muddy one...

A brilliant series about the small changes that make a big difference, with themes of environmentalism and friendship. Written by Holly Webb, bestselling author of the Pet Rescue Adventure series.
With cover illustration by Owen Gildersleeve.
