"The Lost Leadbeater's Possum" By Tim Faulkner

"The Lost Leadbeater's Possum" By Tim Faulkner

$14.95 AUD

“Mr and Mrs Possum were thought to be gone, sent running by logging, destruction and fire…”

Set in rhyming verse, The Lost Leadbeater’s Possum tells the incredible true story of one of Australia’s most iconic and endangered animals, once thought extinct. This poetic narrative follows the story of the Leadbeater’s Possum, rediscovered in the Victorian Central Highlands, which inspired landmark changes to environmental protection laws.

A heartfelt and educational read, this book introduces children to biodiversity loss, conservation efforts, and the role of science and advocacy in environmental recovery. The story helps young readers understand the impact of habitat destruction (logging, bushfires) and the importance of protecting native species.

Ideal for early primary classrooms, conservation units, or bedtime reading for curious nature-lovers.
