The Talking Earth Paperback – 23 October 1987

Puts the reader in touch with many facts about how nature works and how our lives can be effected by it.

Fascinating and enjoyable for adult and child alike.

Not just for young adults. Since reading this I’ve read 6 of her other books. Loved “My Side of the Mountain” series and “Julie of the Wolves” series.

Great books.

Great book for any unit study related to ecology or conservation. It aligns well with the IB PYP transdisciplinary theme of Sharing the Planet. A young girl is banished from her Seminole Tribe to the Everglades. She makes friends with wildlife and learns to develop her senses for listening to the animals and finally learns the import of what they can tell her about her world ands theirs. Average 5th grade read.
