African Dream — Tyan Wyss

One peek inside the pages will open up a whole world of African dreams explaining how one child wants to be assured that all the wonderful creatures now inhabiting the African wild will still be there when she grows up. This tantalizing illustrated book educates children about how some of the planet's most beloved animals might soon become extinct. From the magnificent elephant and brave lion, to the gentle gorilla and wily crocodile, all could lose out on their struggle to survive because of man's greed and ignorance. Children need to be especially alert not only to the story happening inside the little reader's handheld book, but also to the windows, which delightfully tease the observant child into guessing which creature lurks outside! African Dream is a reminder to all adults and young people that through education, we can still save earth's most valuable treasures; its wildlife!
