COPY ISBN

PreS–A visual treat of 15 endangered species from around the world. Children will enjoy the details of each animal that pops off the page. The Rusty Patched Bumble Bee, for example, practically flies out thanks to well-done paper engineering. The text that accompanies each species is brief but engaging.

VERDICT Useful for teacher-led-sharing, the lifespan of the book is limited if less-than-gentle hands are going to engage with the pop ups.
