This is a deceptive little book. From the cover you'd guess it just has a slew of cute pictures of freshly born wildcats. Well yes... but that's not all. Each set of pictures is accompanied by the basics -- birth date, name, zoo -- but also far more. The endangered status of each of the species is listed with a compact yet highly literate and helpful description of the characteristics and range of the cat. By the time you're done, you or your child will know far more than you'd expect from just looking at kitty pictures.I gave this book to a somewhat precocious six-year-old who proudly read the names of each animal showing me many pictures. Because the locations of the zoos are listed, we had a chance to look at maps from around the world to see where each baby lives. It was a joyous, fun but also educational experience for us both.
I LOVE this book! It is a small sized book filled with the cutest cubs!!! I love big cats and in fact plan to return to school to major in Animal Science in order to work with carnivores--big cats to be precise! But back to this book. Every page is filled with the most beautiful photos of cubs, gives information of each cub, as well as facts about each breed and the sobering fact that many of these are quickly going extinct in the wild, due to poaching, or habitat loss. How sad it would be to live in a world where these beautiful and regal cats no longer exist! How sad too, that cubs like these may never know what living free in the wild is like!On the other hand, many are being bred in zoos and because of this we are able to see up close these precious and sweet faced cubs. They are all adorable! If you love big cats and cubs, I would definitely recommend this book! I thank the authors and photographers for publishing this. It makes a great addition to my small but growing library of nature books!
Saw this in a brick-n-mortar store, but I knew I could get it cheaper at . Got it as a gift, and the recipients loved it! It truly is a selection of "newest and cutest" (maybe not as famous as "latest and greatest," but more deserving of consideration, imho). :-)
I ordered this book for my 7 y/o son who is a huge Zooborns fan and wants to be a zoologist someday. I thought it might be too juvenile for him; however, the facts on the cats keep his attention while the pictures are just stunning. Even very young children would enjoy looking through the pictures or learning the names of the various cat species. One word of note, the book is much smaller than I anticipated. I didn't read the specs on it so I was surprised when it arrived much smaller than your standard picture book (think board book size but with paper pages). It doesn't detract from the book - it was just surprising to me. Highly recommend this book to any Zooborns, animal, or big cat fan!
I expected this to be a coffeetable book, you know, LARGE, but it's about 4 inches square ! TINY ! Other than the teeny size, it's really cute. If you are a fan of the ZooBorns website, you already know what to expect. I was just shocked it was so tiny.
This book was ordered as a Christmas gift for my 86 year old mother. She loves going to the zoo and particularly enjoys the baby animals. Last year we purchased Zoo Born Babies for her and she loved it. We are confident that she will love this one as well. She particularly likes the fact that she has visited some of the zoos where the babies were born!The book arrived just a few days after ordering - prompt, as usual!
My almost 3 year old neice loves this book. She has had a love of domestic cats & kittens from an early age so I gave the book to her as a gift to introduce her to more exotic animals. It's the perfect size for a toddler and has adorable pics. She enjoys looking at the pics and then making up little stories about the animals. A nice addition for a child's library.
My daughter gave me this book for Mothers Day. She could not have picked a more perfect book. I keep it at my bedside table and if I can't sleep I look through it and imagine what it would be like to play with these little guys. Its a wonderful book for anyone who loves animals.
