Description 1 volume (unpaged) : colour illustrations ; 23 x 29 cm Summary The Eastern Barred Bandicoot is one of Australia's most threatened species. When their existence came under extreme threat from habitat loss, predators and human development, Eastern Barred Bandicoots found refuge in the most unlikely of places - a rubbish tip. This captivating true story details the plight these small, nocturnal marsupials faced, and the outstanding efforts that ensured their survival. Written by Rohan Cleave and illustrated by Coral Tulloch, "Bouncing Back" shows that even on the brink of extinction, there is hope for the protection of our most vulnerable species Analysis Australian Audience Age range 6 to 9 years Notes 2019 Children's Book Council Shortlist Shortlisted by the Children's Book Council of Australia (CBCA) 2019 for "Notable Australian Children's Books" (Eve Pownall Award) Subject Eastern barred bandicoot.
