In an article on Times For Kids, it says that up to 45 rare species of Australian animals are in danger! But hope is not lost! According to the report, the species can be saved if immediate action is taken to control predators and other threats.

ReplyDeleteIn "A Chat with Author Gennifer Choldenko", it is about Gennifer Choldenko's Al Capone series. In one of her book series Al Capone Does My Shirts, it is about a boy whose father is a guard for Alcatraz Prison. The boy and the warden's daughter end up in hot water when they start in business, in which school children get payed for getting clothes washed by prisoners. She wrote a lot of books for mystery. She is a great author.

You should read the article "Save These Species!" in Time for Kids. It was about 45 species of animals that are almost extinct in Australia. Wild cats kill at least 500,000 animals every day. Animals are also losing their homes in wildfires. To read more, go to Time for Kids and click on "Save These Species!" in the news section.

On March 19,2011 There was war in Libya. On March 17 the United Nations security council voted to authorize a no-fly zone over Libya. That was a sad and interesting article.
