(Book)

2024/05/14

"Sammie, a budding naturalist, knows of a secret and wonderful place: Winghaven, an abandoned lot in the middle of the suburbs where wildlife flourishes. She spends hours making notes and drawings...When Bram, a new boy, turns up with his camera, Sammie worries he'll give away her hidden haven...But Bram is a scientist like Sammie, and together they observe tiny pond creatures, pileated woodpecker with a red crest like a pirate’s bandana, and thriving monarch butterflies whose habitats are becoming scarce. ...When Sammie and Bram discover bright flagging tape encircling the trees, they learn Winghaven is in danger from a local developer-and it's going to take courage, spirit, and science to save it"--,Provided by publisher.
