Zoo Album

Dive into Zoo Album for a fascinating and mem-orable encounter with a wonderful array of animals. The ten animals portrayed are: western lowland gorilla, Sumatran tiger, black rhino, Tasmanian devil, short-beaked echidna, little penguin, Andean condor, komodo dragon, green anaconda, and poison arrow frog. Their personalities, habits and habitats are as diverse as the food they eat and the sounds they make. Capturing the reader's attention with its superb realistic illustrations, Zoo Album also informs with facts and details about the animals and how they live. The basic facts for each animal are: name, age, height, weight and food preference. There is a general description of behavior and living conditions. Moreover, "Did you know?" boxes provide unusual information followed by a statement from each animal's keeper -- the person best able to describe its personality and special characteristics. Zoo Album is eye-catching, fun and interesting. After reading it, children will visit the zoo with a new, constructive understanding of the experience. Enhancing the volume for educational purposes is a handy "Resources" section, which provides links to websites that offer loads of pictures and rich information about zoos, animals, wildlife, and issues of extinction, conservation and environmental awareness.Morecroft, Richard is the author of 'Zoo Album', published 0014 under ISBN 9781592700325 and ISBN 1592700322.
