A project to re-introduce beavers brings a town together against a common threat, in this touching tale from award-winning author Gill Lewis.

As Cari and her mum try to rebuild their home and lives after a devastating flood, they hear of a plan to reintroduce beavers into the area. The changes these amazing animals make to waterways could help to prevent further flooding and Cari knows that she has to get involved.

But with the project facing resistance from other locals, can she convince them to give the beavers a chance – and will it be enough to save her home from being destroyed for a second time?

Particularly suitable for readers aged 9+ with a reading age of 8.
