Baby Animals with Their Families (Baby Animals Around the World #4)
by Suzi Eszterhas (Author)
Around the world, baby animals grow up in all kinds of families. Whether it's albatrosses raising babies in big colonies or sibling pairs of polar bears, baby animals with their families are not only adorable--they can teach us about animal behavior, too.
The fourth and final book in the Baby Animals series, Baby Animals with Their Families showcases more than ten species from around the world in different family behaviors and arrangements.
Stunning, intimate, full-color photographs by Suzi Eszterhas are each paired with a short sentence highlighting information about the animal. Designed both to be read aloud and for young children to explore independently, this book will encourage readers to make connections between their own families and the animals. Back matter gives further information about Suzi Eszterhas and some behind-the-scenes detail.

K-Gr 2--Everyone loves baby animals--but while they look adorable, their families have to work to keep them happy, healthy, and alive. From humpback whales in the ocean to polar bears in the Arctic, babies from all over the world are cared for by their parents in this fun book about young creatures and their families. Eszterhas provides gorgeous photographs to accompany short snippets of information about the ways various animals take care of their young. As an informational text, it provides a good introduction to animal life for younger elementary readers.
