Fun details and gorgeous photos of the animals in and around the poles. Interesting layout and descriptions that are entertaining and informative for all ages. Obviously the main audience is children but adults will love it too. Highly recommend this book.

Once again, Animal Planet does an outstanding job! This book is great for children and adults alike. The Cuddleworthy blocks are an excellent way to remind us to stay away from certain animals that may look approachable, but are not!

I love the direction Animal Planet is heading in with this series. Most pictures are almost mind-bogglingly gorgeous, with the animals looking like they could walk right off the pages and into the reader's room. The layout of the book is great, with each section flowing easily into the next. The infographics are simple, and the "bite-sized" facts are things that young readers can easily understand.

My six-year-old loved the cuddle/snuggle/pet worthy yes or no blocks, though on at least one occasion she wanted to argue about the checked answer! She's fascinated by the size-comparisons that the book lays out, and exclaimed excitedly over several of them. I liked that the "Why live there" gave us a chance to talk about adaptation. The emphasis on family relationships definitely helped to keep her engaged.

Fantastic book that definitely need to go on your child's bookshelf if they like animals even a little bit. Not only is it outright fun just to look at, but it provides so many opportunities for learning and discussion between you and your child(ren). Educational materials don't have to be stuffy or dull, as this series easily proves.

This is another fantastic Animal Planet book. The pictures are amazing and the information is clearly presented in an attractive format. I will be buying a print copy for my son. Highly recommended!!

This book is exactly as the series says, Animal Bites. There are so many facts in this book that something is going to draw in any reader. This book describes many aspects of life in both the Arctic and Antarctic. It talks about habitats, adaptations, family life, humans and their impact and more. The photos in this book are amazing. They are so close you feel like you can touch the animals. The special sections on the side that include cool animal facts, simple infographics, and illustrated maps of Earth's polar environments as well as how far polar animals roam are sure to invite discussion and further investigation. The back of the book that includes polar activities, further resources and an extensive Glossary is a great addition to a lesson on animals that make their homes in either pole. I love that a portion of the proceeds will benefit Animal Planet's R.O.A.R. (Reach Out. Act. Respond.) project which partners with leading animal organization to make the world a better place for domestic and wild animals.

This book would be a great addition to a school or class library, especially those learning about habitats, adaptations and conservation.

From the North pole to the South pole, this book has every polar animals a kid could hope to read about! Caribou, seals, whales, polar bears and more are beautifully captured in photographs. Interesting and little known facts accompany each animal as well as engaging questions for the reader to ponder. A glossary at the end provides additional information and clarification of difficult words. Children (and adults) will learn far more than they ever expected about the fascinating and wild lives of polar animals.

"Animal Planet Polar Animals" by Animal Planet and Laaren Brown is part of the "Animal Bites Series". If this book is representative of the series as a whole, then this collection should be in every child's library. The book is impressively detailed and engaging. Facts have been carefully selected to capture a child's attention, and complement the stunning full-color photographs. Parents will need to help beginning readers with the text, but early independent readers and older children will enjoy the book on their own.

Thank you to Animal Planet and Net Galley for a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book is an up close and personal look at polar animals. Photography is beyond compare. Love all the information that is provided to the reader. Animal Planet keep up the great work. Awesomeness !!!

Without a doubt this book deserves 5 stars - its a lovely book, bright, colourful, full of facts and the photography is simply stunning. Definitely one to be purchased to keep for young ones (and older ones like me) to go back too - ideal reference guide and introduction to Polar species.

Absolutely gorgeous photos and interesting information that my kids absolutely loved. We will be seeking out the other books in this series FOR SURE.
