Explore the world of koalas, kangaroos, and other marsupials in this
award-winning beginner's guide to an unusual group of mammals--the
marsupials.
In this volume from the acclaimed About... series, author and educator
Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children
what marsupials are, how they look, how they move, what they eat, and
where they live.
With beautifully detailed, realistic paintings, noted wildlife
illustrator John Sill introduces readers to a variety of marsupials―from
the well-known koala and kangaroo to the less familiar cuscus and quoll.
An afterword provides more details for the animals featured in the book.
Ideal for early childhood and elementary science units on animals.
