In this title, readers will learn about the wild animals of the savanna (such as the zebra, the giraffe, the lion, the Nile crocodile, and others). It's a book with stories, followed by facts. For animal lovers, ages 4 and up. Review "This was a really good book. I enjoyed the mix of fiction and non fiction. Each animal is represented by a fictional story which anthropomorphizes the animals. The stories have different tones. Some are sweet. some are funny. One is even a retelling of a fable. The non fiction elements were perfect bite-sized bits of information. Exactly how elementary age children absorb facts. I will definitely be purchasing this book for my library." - Grant Public Library"Having several animal lovers for grandchildren, they will love learning about the wild animals of the Savannah. Each story reflects an baby animal and their parents. The stories are funny and informative. As I was reading the story of baby hippo question his appearance with his parents, I could hear both my granddaughters laugh at his antics. He worries that he has a big butt and no one will like him. That all changes when the big butt saves the day. They are endearing stories of the wild but it also ends with facts and actual pictures of the animals. For kiddos that like to laugh and learn, I highly recommend." - Cross Media, Innov "This is a great book. I mean it's all there in the title. A collection of stories of animals that live in the wild of the African Savannah ecosystem. Child friendly stories about animals and what problems they face existing in that world. Followed by short and sweet informative pieces filled with statistics and fun facts. Facts about Hippos, Leopards, Elephants and so much more. My children loved hearing about them all and will hopefully retain the information over several more reads. I recommend Wild Animals of the Savannah to everyone wanting to add more imformative yet stimulating reading to their children's book time." - Always Trust In Books
