Endangered Species Story Books

The SCCP commissioned two illustrated children’s storybooks on species at risk. Written by Olivia Carnrite, and delightfully illustrated by Carrielynn Victor from the village of Cheam, Pilalt Tribe, of the Stó:lō Nation (“people of the river”) in the Fraser Valley.

The Lonely Frog: “The forest is unusually quiet this spring and Aurora, the Northern Red-legged Frog, is feeling lonely. She goes on an unforgettable adventure to find another Red-legged Frog meeting many strange creatures along the way. Will Aurora ever find a friend like her?”

There’s No Place Like Home: “Boomer had things just the way he liked them. He’d worked hard to make his cozy underground burrow and he was finally finished. His elaborate home had several exits and special rooms for napping, feeding, storing food, and even an indoor bathroom! Sumas Mountain had everything a Mountain Beaver, like Boomer, could ever want; lots of clean, fresh water, and juicy plants to eat.”

To purchase them, visit the Fraser Valley Conservancy’s online gift shop.
