Join us for some awesome stories!

We are a bit sad that our work in Borneo is done but you can continue the adventure with a pair of books about Borneo!  We also heard from many of you that Go2Science has been the hook to lure your students into your remote classrooms during COVID 19 school closures.  Curtis and I found some books in Borneo we thought your students would enjoy .  So we've created some virtual read-aloud sessions for you to share with students and keep them engaged for a few more weeks of distance learning.  Enjoy!
The Wild Treehouse of Borneo is about a boy named Toobi who helps some animals in his own backyard.  What animals live in your backyard and how can you protect or create habitat for them?

I Belong to the Forest chronicles the life of a sun bear that was taken from the forest to be a pet. Wild animals belong in the wild! What do you think will happen to this sun bear?

We are THRILLED that the folks at The Innovation Press granted permission for us to share one of their beautiful books with you as a virtual read aloud!  FUNGUS IS AMONG US! is a great tie in to our recent Biodiversity mission in Borneo.  I love that it spotlights a real mycologist, Dr. Sara Branco!  (Yes, I followed her on twitter!)
FUNGUS IS AMONG US! is an informative and whimsical look at the fabulous world of fungi! A delightful rhyming story is coupled with cool facts.  It ends with a Q & A section with a mycologist, Dr. Sara Branco!

If you joined us for the Kenyan Groundwater mission, this story is for you!  The main character is from Sudan, but her plight is very similar to the water challenges they had at HIP Academy.
Nya's Long Walk is about a girl named Nya who lives in Sudan.  Her village has trouble with water.  It reminded us of our good friends in Kenya!
