Logan and the Fox is a conservation book highlighting the use of wild animals for fur. Join Logan as he takes a walk through the woods, getting lost along the way. After encountering a fox caught in a snare, Logan frees his new furry friend and learns the plight of other wildlife not so lucky. Logan soon finds his way home, often returning to the woods to visit his new friend. About Logan and the Fox The fur trade is a global industry responsible for millions of wildlife suffering for fashion. Large-scale industrial fur farms are found across the world. Foxes, mink and other animals are kept in horrendous conditions on these farms. In the wild, many animals are caught in cruel traps and snares, causing a great deal of pain and suffering. It's not just foxes who get caught in traps, either. Domestic pets, birds and other creatures are also caught. Through Logan's journey into the woods and his new-found friend, Logan and the Fox increases awareness of the fur industry. Foxes have beautiful coats made to keep them warm during winter and cool during summer. In today's world, there is no need for humans to wear fur. Logan and his new friend, the fox, teach us the importance of compassion in child-friendly language. Simple black and white illustrations are used to highlight the fact that there are no grey areas when it comes to the well-being of animals. 20% of all proceeds from the sale of the Logan and the Fox conservation book will be donated to Open Cages in the UK who is working to end fur farming, as well as for their initiatives to create a better world for farmed animals.

Glen and the Elephant is a conservation book that draws attention to the plight of elephants orphaned through illegal poaching. In this book, we join Glen as he takes a walk through the African bush. Soon, he discovers the tracks of poachers that lead him to a baby elephant, alone and grieving next to its mother. The orphaned elephant is rescued and sent to live at a sanctuary dedicated to the needs of elephants where she makes new friends. About Glen and the Elephant Poaching is one of the deadliest threats to elephants across Africa. These gentle giants will face extinction if they continue to be killed for their tusks at such a rapid rate. Elephants are listed as endangered and protected species in South Africa. Despite this, the demand for ivory still exists in regions such as Japan and the EU. The black market also creates a large demand for elephant products. In addition to the loss of adult elephants, poaching also has a major effect on the young elephant calves left behind when their mothers are killed. Elephants are extremely sensitive creatures that have a complex social structure. They are capable of great emotion, including grief. Young elephants require rehabilitation and care at specialist orphanages, where they can be raised by caretakers who work tirelessly and acting as substitute 'mothers' to each calf, caring for them until they are old enough to begin the reintegration process. They are also raised among other orphaned elephants, giving them a chance to be part of a herd as they grow. Written for children and adults alike, Glen and his orphaned elephant friend highlight the devastation that poaching causes in elephant populations. Simple black and white illustrations remind us that there are no grey areas when it comes to wildlife protection. 20% of all proceeds from the sale of the Glen and the Elephant conservation book will be donated to HERD Trust (Hoedspruit Elephant Rehabilitation and Development), an elephant orphanage working tirelessly to assist orphaned elephants.
