What can be cuter than reading about baby animals? Kinda bounces around the world but very interesting in covering all the different ways that the animal kingdom raises and cares for it's young.

Kiddo's library selection. Great images, good descriptions and info. Kiddo's favorites were the baby bunnies.

This is a great informational book! It covers animals from all over the world and shows a parents love throughout the animal kingdom. It also included great pictures in which the reader is able to learn a lot! This would be a great for younger students as a fun read aloud or on their own to see the picture. I would use this book to compare and contrast the ways animals act from different regions of the world and to learn more about animals in general.

Excellent. I read this to my 7 year old nephew. We both enjoyed it.
It's easy enough for him to read and understand by himself.
The pictures are awesome, and we both learned interesting details.. like the killdeers distraction display, etc.

Alissa thought the killdeer were smart to pretend they were hurt to keep predators away from their babies.
