Never Give Up
The Long Point World Biosphere Reserve Foundation has teamed up with local children’s author Jan Everett (click to email) to offer a revised edition of her popular Never Give Up book about little Johnny helping turtles cross a dangerous road. The book is based on the true story of her husband John’s efforts to rescue turtles crossing the Long Point Causeway, once rated the fourth deadliest road for turtles in North America.
Johnny’s story also reflects the work of local citizens since 2006 to reduce road mortality of turtles, snakes and frogs on the Causeway that is located in the Biosphere Reserve. The group has faced many challenges to their efforts to install signage, barrier fencing and ecopassages along the road but like little Johnny, their motto is Never Give Up!
The revised edition, also available in French, includes photos and information about the Long Point Causeway Improvement Project and the Biosphere Reserve. Never Give Up and N’Abandonne Jamais sells for a suggested retail price of $9.99.
