NEW LIFE AT THE ZOO

First to The Guardian this week, and some good news from the Tierpark Zoo in Berlin, which has just seen their resident panda Meng Meng give birth to baby twins – all the more remarkable when pandas are difficult to breed. Read more about the new mum and her babies are doing here.

BOY BECOMES SUPERHERO

On BBC News this week, a very moving but uplifting story from Tilbury in Essex. Darren Garwood has written his ill son Jackson as the main character of a picture book telling the tale of a superhero helping tackle climate change. Find out about his inspiration behind it here.

A NEW DESTINATION OUT OF HOMELESSNESS

Finally, on People.com this week, to America and to the story of Julie Ashin, a freelance journalist from Oregon who has put disused old school buses to a new lease of life – becoming mobile new homes for those without a roof over their head. See more of her amazing work here.
