## Children's books and fictional accounts on albatrosses and petrels

 **Introduction**

 Section 6 of the [Action Plan](https://www.acap.aq/documents/instruments)of the Agreement on the Conservation of Albatrosses and Petrels covers the subject of education and public awareness.  Subsection 6.2 calls for Parties to "seek to make local communities and the public in general more aware of the status of albatrosses and petrels and the threats facing them".

 A very important part of raising public awareness is to educate the young.  One way that the conservation message can be put across is by the way of children's books.  However, although there is a plethora of children's books on penguins, there are far fewer on albatrosses and most especially on petrels and shearwaters, including those species listed within ACAP.

 Accordingly, and starting with the help of Hilary Shibata, Antarctic Bibliographer at the [Scott Polar Research Institute](http://www.spri.cam.ac.uk/), University of Cambridge, United Kingdom, the following list was been compiled and continues to be updated. Click on REVIEW to access reviews of more recent titles in *ACAP Latest News*.

 ACAP would be pleased to hear bibliographic details of other children's books and fictional accounts on procellariiform seabirds, in any language.  Please email [secretariat.acap.aq](mailto:secretariat@acap.aq) with information.

## Recent books on Southern Ocean islands supporting ACAP-listed species

**Introduction**

 The sub-Antarctic and cool temperate islands of the Southern Ocean all support populations of ACAP-listed species of albatrosses and petrels.  A large number of books and booklets has been published since the year 2000 dealing with various aspects of these southern islands, including historical and personal accounts, scholarly reviews of scientific research, bird and field guides, specialist studies and popular illustrated treatments.  A selective bibliographic list follows, arranged alphabetically by island groups. Books that cover more than one group of islands are listed separately. Only the most recent editions are listed.  Titles marked with REVIEW have been reviewed in *ACAP Latest News. *Details of new titles should be sent to [secretariat@acap.aq](mailto:secretariat@acap.aq).

 See other resource documents on this web site for lists of island management and species conservation plans.
