Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 2-4--Black Bears describes the animals' behavior in the wild with emphasis on hibernation. A scientist's first-hand observations lend credibility and offer fascinating glimpses of the bear's ability to survive during the seasonal event. Bald Eagles examines the birds' life cycle and behavior and includes a discussion of their symbolic significance throughout U. S. history and for Native Americans. Relevant comparisons appear throughout the text. Both titles stress the importance of protecting these species and discuss the impact of people on their survival. With large print; numerous high-quality, full-color, full-page photographs; and brief glossaries, the books present information in language that is right on target for the intended audience. Pictures of baby bear cubs in the den are exceptional; there are excellent closeups of an eagle's talons and of a chick in the nest. Young readers should have access to both titles. --Diane Nunn, Richard E. Byrd Elementary School, Glen Rock, NJ
