This term we have been reading 'The Last Tuatara' by Des Hunt. This is fantastic adventure/mystery book set in New Zealand, where the survival of the tuatara is at risk. With problems just as spray poisoning, climate change and the dangerous smugglers we were kept on the edge of our seats. It is well written with some graphic descriptions - an adrenaline pumping read set in our wonderful natural world.
We realised that Mrs Hall's daughter works on an island where they are working to keep the tuatara alive and to ensure that they don't become extinct just like it said at the end of the book. Her website is: www.alpinedaisy.wordpress.com
Have a look and see the wonderful photos of the tuataras she is looking after especially the baby one smaller than the clogs.
