Homes in the Wild: Where Baby Animals and Their Parents Live, Hardcover/Lita Judge
Descriere
Description As informative as it is lovely, Homes in the Wild is an adorable nonfiction picture book from author/illustrator Lita Judge that shows that wild creatures--from beavers to bobcats, and sloths to squirrels--aren't so different from us after all. Just like us, every baby animal has a home. Some live in complex burrows deep underground, others in simple nests high in the treetops. But all homes, regardless of where they are or how they're built, serve the same purpose: providing shelter where a baby can eat, sleep, learn, and stay safe while growing up. Animal lovers will delight in this gorgeously illustrated peek inside the homes--from burrows deep underground to nests high in the trees--where baby animals live and grow. About the author Lita Judge is the author and illustrator of several award-winning picture books for young readers, including How Big Were Dinosaurs?, Bird Talk, Born in the Wild, Flight School, and Red Sled. She wrote and illustrated a young adult free verse biography of Mary Shelley titled Mary's Monster. She lives in Peterborough, New Hampshire, with her husband, two cats and a parrot.
