What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book touches on predator and prey relationships as a natural part of the ecosystem. This is handled in a direct, factual, and non-sensational way. For example, it might show an owl with a mouse. The approach is entirely secular and scientific. The resolution is not a plot point, but rather a final impression of a balanced, self-sustaining natural world.
