Ziggy's Frightening Flight is a true story about the global problem of habitat loss. It highlights to children the relationship between humans and wildlife and the dangers animals face in their own habitats. Stunning artwork and a gentle story captures the imagination of young readers, bringing to life a very real threat to our world.
Ziggy's Frightening Flight sees Ziggy the honey bee buzzing happily from flower to flower, yet as time goes on she realises the flowers she loves are making her sick. Can the farmer and his children save the bees before it is too late?

Ziggy's Frightening Flight is based on true events and it is this powerful message which invites children and adults alike to question the impact of habitat loss on our environment. With ideas and activities which reinforce the story this is a book which will inspire children to make changes to the world around them.

There is a huge growing national and international consciousness about the need to protect our bees and it is important to teach children about this global issue without overwhelming them or shocking them. The Wild Tribe Heroes series of books guides young readers through the issues in a gentle and friendly way together with further information to inspire children to make changes to their own and their families lives.

Ellie Jackson is a mother of four young children who has written the Wild Tribe Heroes series of books to help educate children about global environmental issues. Ellie lives by the sea in Looe, Cornwall, and wrote her first book after living on Magnetic Island in the Great Barrier Reef in Australia, during which time, she and her young family saw a turtle called Duffy being released back into the ocean after a year of treatment for ingesting plastic. "My children and I were transfixed by the sight of this beautiful creature being set free, and subsequently visited a turtle hospital on the mainland to find out more. Once my children had made the link between plastics and turtles they were obsessed with clearing litter from beaches so that they could help protect turtles and other sea life." In this way, Ellie, an environmental scientist who taught geography for six years, conceived her idea to use children's books as a way of educating young people about environmental threats to our planet.
