Animal Teachers

(3) K-3 Illustrated by Katy Hudson. Animal parents teach their young what food to eat, how to swim, and how to defend themselves. Questions on each spread gently challenge young (human) children to relate the animal information to themselves: "Who gave you your first swimming lessons?" "How do you make yourself heard?" Softly rendered paintings portray baby animals learning and growing with their parents' help. More animal facts are appended.
