For Gillian Richardson, this has been the perfect mix for writing 21 children's books, including both fiction (picture books, chapter books, novels), and nonfiction. Bestsellers, Kaboom! Explosions off All Kinds, and 10 Plants That Shook the World, won international awards. Recent ebook publications include Ollie Buggins, Detective? and Take Me With You, both chapter books for ages 6-8. Now this former Teacher-Librarian and writing instructor brings together in a single volume a collection of short stories, 9 of which were previously published in Cricket Magazine. An Instinct for Survival: Ten Nature Adventures is rich in detail about the animals' lifestyles and environments. Each story gives readers a glimpse into the constant struggle for survival, focusing on a dramatic moment when everything depends on instinct. Exciting action and adventure reading for ages 9-12. view less
