Illustrated by
Anne Wilson.
Fifteen endangered animals from the International Union for Conservation of Nature's "Red List" are profiled, each with a brief two-page spread that includes colorful illustrations of the animal in its habitat and information on why it's endangered. Two pages at the end suggest ways kids can help (organizations' websites included). Other sources will be needed for serious research, but this is an interesting introduction to wildlife conservation.
