More DescriptionDesigned for students with special educational needs, this is from a series which brings together a number of titles in easy-to-read editions. This title introduces readers to the wildlife in the urban environment and to the wild plants that survive in the city, and shows how to encourage them. Some animals actually prefer life in the town to the country. The book looks at city creatures and their habits, and asks how we can encourage other types of animals to visit our urban areas. It also looks at wild plants which survive on our streets, on buildings and in town wastelands, and suggests how people can work together to encourage wildlife into towns and cities. The book adopts an optimistic approach to today's ecological issues.
