Each of these seven books focusing on a specific baby mammal found in the Amazon River region offers information on habitat, physical appearance, communication, predators, mother-baby relationship, and maturation. Adorable close-up, clearly labeled photographs of the critters and short (if clunky) sentences make these generic books appropriate and manageable for new readers. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Jungle Babies titles: Capybaras, Giant River Otters, Jaguars, Kinkajous, Pink River Dolphins, Squirrel Monkeys, and Three-Toed Sloths.

Jungle Babies of the Amazon Rain Forest series.
Following the series formula, two-page chapters introduce the South American tapir calf and discuss physical characteristics, differences between adults and babies, habitat, behavior, defenses, and growth. The text is simple and easy to read; the close-up well-labeled photographs make this rather odd-looking mammal look cute. New readers will find this first nonfiction book accessible. A map and picture glossary support the text. Reading list. Ind.
