Our Review

This gentle conservation story follows Felina, a Florida panther whose forest home begins disappearing as human development encroaches on her territory. Through Felina's perspective, young readers witness how habitat loss affects the entire ecosystem, from the panther herself to the other woodland creatures who must navigate this changing landscape. The narrative thoughtfully explores whether wildlife can adapt to increasing human presence while maintaining the delicate balance of their natural world.

What sets this environmental tale apart is its practical approach to conservation education, extending beyond the story with interactive learning components. The included "For Creative Minds" section transforms reading into action, providing children with tangible ways to help protect wildlife in their own communities. This combination of emotional storytelling and actionable guidance makes the book particularly valuable for budding environmentalists who want to understand how they can make a difference in preserving animal habitats.
