Tui and Stevie - a conservation tale is a gentle, heartwarming story that celebrates friendship, curiosity, and caring for Country. Set within an Australian garden alive with life and learning, the story follows Tui, a lively Cavoodle with a nose for adventure, and Stevie, a thoughtful native Swamp Rat who knows every corner of their shared habitat.
Together, they explore the wonder of biodiversity, earning about pollinators, wetlands, native plants, and the delicate balance that keeps ecosystems thriving. Guided by the voices of First Nations wisdom, Tui and Stevie come to understand that caring for the land is not just an activity but a responsibility shared by all beings, human and animal alike.
Through each chapter, the pair meet new friends. The magpies, rosellas, honey eaters, frogs, and even the humans at the local café, who all play a role in learning about conservation and cooperation. From creating frog bogs to cleaning rivers and planting native species, every action becomes a lesson in sustainability and community connection.
Written with warmth, humour, and deep respect for the natural world, Stevie the Swamp Rat and Tui the Dog invites readers to see their own gardens, streets, and waterways as living ecosystems worth protecting. This story reminds us that even small creatures can inspire big changes, and that collaboration, between species, neighbours, and cultures, is the path to a thriving planet.
Perfect for families, schools, and community readers, this book encourages environmental awareness through storytelling, showing that when we listen to each other and to Country, we all become caretakers of something greater than ourselves.
A celebration of Australian wildlife, friendship, and shared responsibility, Stevie the Swamp Rat and Tui the Dog is both playful and profound. A story that plants seeds of hope for future generations.
