THE WHIPPING BOY Author: Sid FleischmanPublisher: new york: harpertrophy, 2003Call no.: Junior Lending English FLE

As the boys unhappily swap places, the lesson of stepping into another person’s shoes and the importance of empathy emerge. Peppered with classic illustrations by Peter Sís, this all-time favourite and Newbery Medal winner is not just a thrilling ride; it is also a captivating tale about growing up.

OVER IN THE WETLANDS: A HURRICANE-ON-THE-BAYOU STORY Author: Caroline Starr RosePublisher: new york: Schwartz & Wade Books, 2015Call no.: Junior Lending Picture Book English RoS

Told in rhyming verse, this beautifully illustrated book shows animals hiding from a storm as a hurricane stirs over the Mississippi River Delta. After the storm, the animals creep out again and the bayou is peaceful once more. However, a note from the author tells us that flooding, which comes after a hurricane, is a growing threat to Louisiana’s coastal wetlands. This is because over 2,000 square miles of wetlands have been destroyed by humans.

At the end of the book, readers can also learn more about the animals in the story; their habitat and living patterns in the bayou. This is a good lead-in for parents to teach their children about the ecological impact of human activities on the environment.
