BIRD'S EYE - Fall 2023

COMMUNITY: SAVING THE BLUE

IN FOCUS: CHILDREN’S BOOK Saving the Blue president Annie Guttridge wrote and designed a marine themed children’s book inspired by The Bahamas for the children of The Bahamas. Over 5,000 books were printed— enough to gift a copy to every child in Andros and beyond! The book highlights six islands and habitats found in The Bahamas, including: The man- groves, the sand flats, a shipwreck, a coral reef, the open ocean, and a blue hole. The book also includes fun facts, conservation concerns and suggestions, an introduction to trophic hierarchy, and ‘find and seek’ games!

Results:

- Saving the Blue has presented to thousands of children and gifted over 4,000 books to children thus far.
