| Author Notes: | This acclaimed beginner's guide offers a first glimpse into the natural world of rodents-everything from porcupines and deer mice to squirrels, hamsters, and more. Author and educator Cathryn Sill uses simple, easy-to-understand language to teach children what rodents are, how they look, how they move, what they eat, and where they live. The beautifully accurate paintings by noted wildlife illustrator John Sill depict a variety of rodents, from the tiny Eurasian harvest mouse to the hefty capybara of South America. An afterword provides more details for curious young naturalists. |
