Book excerpt: Every spring, puffin parents come back to the same cliff to raise a single baby puffling. And every fall, all of the parents pick one day to leave so that their babies can start taking care of themselves. The pufflings have an instinct to fly toward the moon, which would lead them to the ocean and away from the cliff. But the lights of civilization confuse some of the pufflings, who then end up lost and lonely on land.But then something amazing happens! Kids who live on Iceland's Westman Islands look for those lost pufflings in town every September. They keep them overnight in little houses they have made for just this purpose, and then take them to the Sea Life Trust. The pufflings are checked out by the team there, and most of the pufflings are healthy enough to be released to the ocean. In the fall of 2019, children on the Westman Islands rescued over 7,500 pufflings! Follow along as Lundi the puffling gets lost and then saved, based on the true child heroes of Iceland!

Book excerpt: Puffling is a baby—small, white, and very hungry. Every day he waits in the burrow while his parents, Big Stripy Beak and Long Black Feather hunt for food. As he grows, Puffling dreams of the day when he will leave his nest and fly away—but he isn't ready yet, not until he's tall and brave enough to fend for himself. Every day Puffling asks his parents, but every day they say he must wait until he has grown bigger. Will he ever be ready to head out into the world on his own? This story about how love makes us strong, brave, and happy, too, is perfect for so many milestones: first times with babysitters, first days of school, and even graduation.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Project Puffin is the inspiringstory of how a beloved seabird was restored to long-abandoned nesting colonies off the Maine coast. As a young ornithology instructor at the Hog Island Audubon Camp, Dr. Stephen W. Kress learned that puffins had nested on nearby islands until extirpated by hunters in the late 1800s. To right this environmental wrong, he resolved to bring puffins back to one such island—Eastern Egg Rock. Yet bringing the plan to reality meant convincing skeptics, finding resources, and inventing restoration methods at a time when many believed in “letting nature take its course.” Today, Project Puffin has restored more than 1,000 puffin pairs to three Maine islands. But even more exciting, techniques developed during the project have helped to restore rare and endangered seabirds worldwide. Further, reestablished puffins now serve as a window into the effects of climate change. The success of Dr. Kress's project offers hope that people can restore lost wildlife populations and the habitats that support them. The need for such inspiration has never been greater.
