Is There Still Gold in Bodie?: (Mom's Choice Award Winner) (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781737001058)

Uh-oh! One of the bears in Bodie State Historic Park has found GOLD.

Gold was the reason Bodie became a town during the California Gold Rush, but it was also the reason the land and waterways were damaged. The animals of Bodie are worried another gold rush might happen if the humans find out there's still gold around.

But what can a bunch of animals do?
Cooperate!

With the help of Kiara, the Junior Park Ranger at Bodie, the pronghorn, red-tailed hawks, bears, beavers, snakes, pikas, and all the other animals put their heads together, come up with a plan, and ACT to save Bodie!

In Is There Still Gold in Bodie? the second book in the Junior Park Ranger Adventure Series by Jennifer Benito-Kowalski provides kids a brief history of Bodie State Historic Park, describes human impact on the environment, and shows the big things you can get done when you work together.

Author Jennifer Benito-Kowalski draws from her fifteen years of conservation and park industry experience in creation of Is There Still Gold in Bodie? and upcoming books in her Junior Park Ranger Adventure Series.

As a conservationist she has discovered the need for kid-focused, compelling story-telling that welcomes, embraces and celebrates diversity in our parks while educating the importance of protecting nature.
