A snowy owl flying, a giant panda climbing, a huge gray whale emerging from the waves: See these beautiful animals in the wild, where they belong. These amazing photos from the archives of the National Wildlife Federation showcase a menagerie of marvelous creatures. Children will look wide-eyed at a herd of wildebeests rushing through water; a mama brown bear attending to her adorable cubs; a smiling alligator, its powerful jaws opened wide; adult elephants protectively surrounding their young; and more. While enjoying their close-up look at this wonderful world of wildlife, kids will gain an early and lifelong appreciation for the marvelous creatures who also call Earth home.

Featuring spectacular images straight from the vaults of the National Wildlife Federation, these should be the very first books to introduce children to animals from around the world. Every photo shows these creatures in their natural habitats. Each books in the series carries the logo and name of the National Wildlife Federation. These are not just board books, but the first books that any toddler will love and adults will enjoy reading. Each full page spread is a story by itself. See the lions arguing but the walrus can’t bear to watch. The baby sea lion wants to play and the organgutan wants to play too. The chipmunk tells the polar bear to stop, and the polar bear does. Fantastic photos of wildlife combined with funny comments to make these a new kind of board book.

A sweet tiger cub, padding softly on its paws across the ground. A little lion getting its head nuzzled by mama as they soak in the sun. Two young kangaroos—joeys—at play. An infant chimpanzee, clinging lovingly to its mother’s back. Nothing’s more irresistible than an animal baby, and with these magnificent photos, kids can meet the cutest ones of all, and their families, too. From two fox kits climbing on logs, to an adorable baby bunny, to a trio of polar bears huddling close to stay warm, to penguins, polar bears, eaglets, and foals, these precious creatures will fascinate human "cubs"—and entice them to look at the pictures over and over again.
