Key Selling Points

  • Recent studies have highlighted the ability of beavers to help mitigate the effects of climate change, particularly drought, flooding and wildfires.
  • Beavers are fascinating animals with a high recognition factor (their buckteeth and flat tail are unmistakable) and beaver kits are irresistibly cute.
  • The author wrote an adult nonfiction book in 2015 about beavers called Once They Were Hats: In Search of the Mighty Beaver. She’s also the winner of the City of Victoria Butler Book Prize in 2010 for Children of the Klondike.
  • There has been a dramatic increase in beaver research by biologists, hydrologists and other scientists over the past decade.
