A howling wolf a stalking tiger a playful panda a dancing bird – pairing the stunning photography of National Geographic photographer Joel Sartore with the delicate poetry of Newbery award-winning author Kwame Alexander this lush picture book celebrates the beauty diversity and fragility of the animal world. Featuring more than 40 unique animal portraits the pages invite kids to explore each creature's markings textures and attributes in stunning detail while calling on all of us to help protect each and every one.
