Description

Around the world, baby animals move in different ways. Whether it’s egret chicks practicing flapping their wings, zebra calves learning to run just a few hours after they’re born, or baby orangutans hanging onto their moms as they swing through the jungle, baby animals on the go are not only adorable—they can teach us about animal behavior, too.

The second book in the Baby Animals series, it showcases twelve species from around the globe, each moving in different ways. Stunning photographs by award-winning wildlife photographer Suzi Eszterhas are paired with brief informational text. Designed both to be read aloud or explored independently, this book reinforces how baby animals learn valuable life skills that will help them survive on their own in the wild. Back matter gives further information about Suzi and her wildlife photography work.

I  recieved a free digital copy of this book from Netgalley for an honest review.

The pictures are stunning! They're all accompanied with a short description of each animal and their moving habits. Loved this short book!

This book shows how many animal babies move, whether alone or with the help of their parents. The illustrations are beautiful photographs taken by Suzi Eszterhas, who is a wildlife photographer and animal activist. All the photos in this book are of animal families in the wild moving from place to place. Not only does the text tell us how they move, by why and when. The text that is included are short anecdotes describing what is happening in the pictures as well as identifying the animals. This is a great read aloud story for young children. A great non-fiction book to add to school and family libraries. A good book for any animal lovers.

This book contains wonderful pictures of sweet baby animals in their natural habitats. They are featured with their mothers or extended animal family. With all manner of land and water dwelling creatures, you're almost guaranteed to see your favorite.

The text is pretty straightforward and appropriate for early elementary readers.

With beautiful photographs and easy-to-understand text, this book helps children learn more about baby animals and how they move about through the wild. The text tells how, why, and when the animals move, with short blurbs that describe what happens in each picture. It shows a joey being carried in his mother's pouch, an otter pup getting a ride on its mom's tummy, and more. The photographs are stunning! This is a great book for animal lovers.
I read a copy from the publisher via NetGalley. All opinions are my own.

Baby Animals Moving is a delightful children's book embedded with beautiful photographs as well as reference reading. Factual, it would help a young elementary aged child report on facts concerning animals, yet for a . younger child, it would be excellent for language development.

Thank you to #NetGalley and the publisher for a chance to review this book pre-publication in exchange for an honest review.

Baby Animals Moving, by Suzi Eszterhas is an informative book that provides a fun way for children to learn about baby animals on the move.

As a part of the Baby Animals series, this book encourages children to learn about animals while working on their reading skills. Within twenty-four pages, there are interesting animal facts intermixed with full-color photographs.

According to a note from the author: "I travel all over the world taking pictures of animals.... I think it's important for kids to connect with animals and nature. You can do this by looking at photos, reading books, or just going outside and running, climbing, and jumping like these baby animals on the move!"

Baby Animals Moving is a children's non-fiction book geared towards preschoolers to second graders, yet a variety of ages will enjoy this delightful book.


Note: I received this book from NetGalley, which is a program designed for bloggers to write book reviews in exchange for books, yet the opinions expressed in this review are my own.
