|author= Bear Grylls

|title= New Jungle Book Adventures: Spirit of the Jungle

|rating= 3

|genre= Confident Readers

|summary= This book is technically excellent but unfortunately it falls flat in the actual execution. Grylls uses trusted storytelling techniques such as the hero's journey and Chekov's Gun to produce a frame that should be engaging with the target audience but unfortunately it does not quite hit the mark. What we ultimately have is a great idea with some wonderful moments that never really recovers from a slow beginning.

~~|author= Tormod V Burkey~~

~~|title=Ethics for a Full World or, Can Animal-Lovers Save the World?~~

~~|rating=4~~

~~|genre= Animals and Wildlife~~

|summary= Burkey argues that man's current practices are outside the realms of nature. He is no longer part of the ecosystem, but instead exists above it through his dominating ways. He is himself distanced even further by advancement in technologies, industry, money and all the pollution that comes with them. The natural world, Burkey argues, no longer exists for man because he has altered it by such things. Indeed, global warming has caused climate change, which, if it continues, will make the world unrecognisable. For the world to become fuller, for it to be a world that seeks to provide for the needs of every living thing, then it needs to change.
