Tender Moments in the Wild Animals And Their Babies

These stunning photographs and simple, storybook captions introduce young children to the bonds of love that exist between mothers and their babies in the animal kingdom. Through real-life images taken by some of the world's best wildlife photographers, children see how nurturing behavior in the wild resembles--or differs from--the care they receive from their parents. Images include a cheetah greeting her kitten with a nuzzle, an alligator protecting her young in her mouth, a hippopotamus teaching her baby the art of bathing, and a polar bear providing a cozy napping spot for her cub. Early readers are encouraged to begin making connections between the pictures and words on the pages, fostering reading skills along with a visual familiarity with the natural world.Maze, Stephanie is the author of 'Tender Moments in the Wild Animals And Their Babies' with ISBN 9780976954200 and ISBN 0976954206.
