Product Description
People have always like changing their environment. We have built roads, bridges, houses, cities, and factories. Some of these "improvements" have damaged the natural habitats of the animals and plants that lived there first. With a captivating text and breathtaking illustrations, author Dave Dobson and illustrator Jim Needham introduce the reader to twelve species of endangered animals and plants. From the beautiful cui-ui to the Puerto Rican parrot, they present the dangers each species faces and suggest ways to restore its natural environment. |

Awesome Book! by WebDeavah (Philadelphia, PA)  5 Stars
December 26, 2007
In my second grade classroom we did research projects on endangered animals and I was in need of material that my students could read independently. This book was a great source of information for my students and made the information accessible to all. Being able to read about the less talked about animals in danger was gratifying and made the book well worth the purchase. The vibrant color pictures were a selling point for the kids and me! I am certain to use this book in years to come for various projects and reading assignments.
