Description
Foreword by Dr. Jane Goodall
Readers join Jane as she dives deep on 10 different endangered species, with facts about how they live, what they eat, and what makes them amazing, while also taking a real look at the challenges they are facing, what is being done to help them, and how we all can work together to save them.
If your kid animal scientist enjoyed The Leaf Detective, Exploring Nature Activity Book for Kids, or the Dino Dana series, you'll love Jane's Endangered Animal Guide.
Jane's Animal Field Guide will be engaging the Jane audience to complete the experience beyond the show and learn more about the amazing creatures they are seeing in the series, which will launch simultaneously with the launch of the book. Jane the series is a new mission-driven series for kids and families from Sinking Ship Entertainment and the Jane Goodall Institute.
The book will be promoted alongside the roll out of the companion Museum Experience premiering in two major US markets in April 2023.
The authors' existing brand Dino Dana has a large audience cross over and the Jane books will be promoted to that engaged audience as well.
Press interest for the series will be high (the announcement of the series was picked up by Deadline, Variety, and Hollywood Reporter). The book will be mentioned in some interviews about the series.
The Jane Goodall Institute is a partner in the series and in the book and information about the book and series will be shared with their global mailing lists.
