Book excerpt: Can a smelly monster threaten a town? Or tiny creatures organise a river clean-up? Polythene bags, glass bottles, and paper sheets need to be recycled and a homesick mudskipper tells stories about his mangrove home! Sounds incredible, doesnt it? And thats not all Ramu, the fisher boy, misses his vanished beach, Rinas trying hard to find out where all that sand comes from, Rahuls head is exploding with questions about volcanoes, while Minas looking for ideas to celebrate World Environment Day! Can anyone help these kids? The Disappearing Beach and other nature stories is a collection of nine tales about problems affecting our environment and with useful clues on how to tackle them.
