#038 | Jenny Bailey - Corporate Marketer to Conservation Children's Author

Agile Ideas

A fascinating story of a corporate marketing professional, who takes a redundancy and converts it to a good news story by becoming a conversation children's author.She is one half of the partnership who has developed the idea for Tales From Mother Earth - Music and stories that ignite the conservationist in all of us. By compiling a touching series of realistic animal and insect children’s stories, they aim to raise the awareness of the plight our natural world is facing in these uncertain times of climate change, erosion of natural habitat and plastic pollution. Through active learning, our books are aimed to educate and inspire the young.In these troubled times, we are all very aware of the importance of conservation and doing all we can to nurture and encourage generations young and old to appreciate the natural world. Their collective mission is to collaborate and bring about a lasting change, one that will encourage wildlife to prosper and one that will ultimately benefit us all.Jenny has been busy writing the stories and promoting their first book - Phoebe the Bee which teaches children the importance of bees and how much they do for us. Phoebe the Bee is an educational tale about a worker bee who through her courage and determination manages to save the hive and her family when her natural environment is threatened by modern development.Each book is accompanied by a CD where the story is read by 'Mother Earth', there is also a read-along feature, beautiful illustrations and original theme and feature music. Providing puzzle pages, fun facts and top action tips that the reader is encouraged to take part in with the aim of helping the natural world, the conservation message is reinforced throughout. All these elements combine to produce a great tool that is sure to educate and delight all who read it.Please enjoy this episode of Agile Ideas with Tales from Mother Earth author and co-founder Jenny Bailey.
