Produktbeschreibung
'The Green Dragon and the Angry Monkeys' is the 4th book in the Green Dragon series. This is the story of how the monkeys came to Hong Kong. Not an indigenous species, so how did they end up in Hong Kong? Learn the true story of the monkeys and what has made them so angry. With a little bit of Hong Kong's history thrown in, the construction of the Kowloon Reservoir is more intriguing than you might imagine! With beautiful illustrations of Hong Kong's landscape and tourist attractions, the story teaches what can happen to a species and an environment when suddenly introduced. With cute, loveable characters once again, this environmental story adds to the magical series from Suzanne Younan. Kindness, compassion and a really good story.....a great way to teach children about the environment in a fun way! Although set in Hong Kong, the story is valid anywhere where non-native species are introduced, unfortunately. If you have a love of Hong Kong or travel you will surely enjoy the references to this beautiful land.
Autorenporträt
Suzanne is a British citizen who moved to Hong Kong in 2015. In late 2017 a series of typhoons devastated the region. After joining a beach clean-up, her eyes and heart were opened to the immense problem of plastic pollution in the ocean. Propelled by a love of nature and being a keen dragon boater, Suzanne founded a volunteer organisation. She turned to her new sporting community to raise awareness of the volume of single-use plastic used in the sport. With great success and plenty of frustrations along the way, her journey then took her a step further to write children's books raising awareness to youngsters, about the issues that face not only Hong Kong but the planet. Her books take Suzanne to schools within Hong Kong, reading her stories and discussing with children how we can change human habits for the sake of our planet. The book series is a work of passion, a true calling.
