About this listen

A unique wildlife and nature conservation story, told from the animals’ point of view.

Listeners who love realistic wildlife stories and stories highlighting the plight of animals in their interactions with humans will love this humorous and tragic forest animal adventure story.

Dakota the Deer (to honour the Dakota pipeline water protectors) and other animals live in a forest next to a farm. One day they are disturbed by some additional human activity - the humans pull down trees and put up a structure, then go away. The animals can’t agree on what this human activity means, so Flint the Fox (to honour the Flint community affected by water pollution), Bentley the Bat (to honour Bentley anti-drilling blockaders), and some others try to find out more. Is it simply another thing they’ll have to get used to, or like Whanganui the Weasel (to honour the Whanganui River, protected by tribespeople) claims, is it the start of something much more serious?

More than an eco story: This is a true-to-life animal story in which the main woodland animal characters are named to honour young environmental activists, nature conservation campaigns and indigenous tribes across the globe. Information, guidance, and websites about wildlife conservation are included at the end of the audiobook, to stimulate awareness, research, and discussion.

Can one story save the Earth? It’s up to you.

Critic reviews

“A beautifully illustrated, environmentally themed animal story.... This text is a pleasure to read due to the superb descriptive detail and wide ranging vocabulary, but also as it is delightfully written in ‘proper English’.... Animals in the Forest is a really lovely, thought-provoking addition to your child’s reading and English curriculum which I am sure all children will enjoy and be inspired by.” (Review in EducationOtherwise.org newsletter, spring 2018)
