Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 1-3-These books follow three animals that live on nature preserves from birth to independence. Each page includes a few sentences of large-print type about the featured animal's life and development and a full-color photo. Puck, a Caribbean flamingo living at Busch Gardens in Tampa, FL, has parents that take turns watching over him until he is about seven months of age. Sidney, an orphaned harbor seal, is rescued by Seal Watch at about three weeks of age, and finds a new home at a sea-mammal center until she is ready to be returned to the wild. Finally, Kipper begins life in his mother's pouch not much bigger than a kidney bean. During the next 13 months, he learns to hop, climbing in and out of his mother's pouch, and napping in the hot sun at the Lone Pine Koala Sanctuary in Brisbane, Australia. Students writing reports may need to supplement these selections with other titles, as there is not a lot of detail concerning habits and habitats. Overall, though, the books are attractive and will enhance science collections.

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: A Harbor Seal Pup Grows Up (Baby Animals (Learner Classroom)) (Paperback)
I always enjoy finding fun, informative books that educate the lower elementary students that I interact with in my substitute teacher capacity, especially books that complement the cute Folkmanis puppets.
