Sparkling Saves a Tiger - Matthew Henderson

THE TINGALINGS are a cast of five loveable characters - Braveling, Sparkling, Darling, Smartling and Bumbling -who promote kindness and climate change awareness. Using one character and one adventure at a time, the series gently opens young eyes to climate change's extensive reach, with easy ideas for ways to reduce our carbon output at home. The series launched in November 2020 withDARLING SAVES A KOALA BEAR, following Darling's adventure to save koala bears from the wildfires ravaging their home. Next in April 2021 came BRAVELING SAVES A SNOW LEOPARD exposing the impact of melting snow on mountain habitats. Third up came 'kind, wise, calm' Smartling's ocean adventure - SMARTLING SAVES A SEA TURTLE - exposing the impact of waste on ocean habitats. Now comes SPARKLING SAVES A TIGER - the weighty reality of deforestation is toned down for young minds by a happy outcome, Jenny Wren's delightful illustrations, sing-song text and ideas for simple climate solutions that the whole family can adopt.
