Animals

Handwriting with Animal Facts

Good penmanship takes practice, but it can be hard to keep children engaged with ordinary writing drills. Children will learn to write neatly in print (also called manuscript) and in cursive as they read and copy words that are all about animals. With colorful illustrations and fun facts about mammals, fish, reptiles, birds, and bugs, each writing lesson feels like a romp through the animal kingdom! Kids will build skills as they go, beginning with tracing the alphabet and working up to printing full sentences. Each exercise uncovers new knowledge, like “an elephant’s tusks never stop growing” and “there are more kangaroos than humans in Australia.” Full-page pictures to color offer an opportunity to get creative in between writing lessons. A Before and After page highlights progress, showing kids how much their penmanship has improved. For ages 6 – 9.

Superpower Field Guides

From Caldecott Honor-winning team Steve Jenkins and Robin Page comes an early introduction to one of young readers' favorite places: the zoo!

Going to the zoo is so exciting! You might see penguins swimming underwater, snakes sunning in the reptile house, or giraffes eating leaves out of high trees. You might even see people at the zoo, ones just like you! But what do those people do?

Caldecott Honor-winning team Steve Jenkins and Robin Page introduce young readers to the people who keep zoo animals safe, healthy, and happy, even though they aren't in the wild habitats they've evolved for. From cuddling a baby kangaroo to trimming elephant toenails to playing soccer with a rhino, zookeepers work hard and do some pretty wacky things to take care of the incredible animals we see.

So, what would you do if you were in the zookeeper's shoes? Turn the page and find out! 40 pages, softcover.
