In this companion to Little Turtle and the Changing Sea (2021), a tiger finds herself in peril this time. Bright-orange Aasha and her fellow tigers stand out amid the lush green forest and abundant wildlife, but soon sunny days become hotter and rainy days become wetter until there’s a flood. While the adorable tiger loves swimming in the newly formed watery playground, she notices that other animals, like the boars, have lost their grazing grounds and are leaving. With the boars—her favorite meal!—gone, Aasha starts to run out of food as well. As she finds herself alone among stumps, forest colors also begin to fade. A dark, nighttime scene transitions the story to the cause of the deforestation and disappearing wildlife: humans and machines with “bright silver teeth.” Wandering solo, Aasha notices another orange spot—an orangutan friend—and together they search for a new home. Once again, verdant colors and wildlife return in an untouched land. Back matter offers more information on tiger habitats, deforestation, and climate change to little conservationists. –Booklist
