Egret has LONG legs. Puffin has SHORT legs.Developed in partnership with Ranger Rick and the National Wildlife Federation, this photo-illustrated gem teaches the youngest of children about opposites using examples from the animal kingdom. Vibrant photos paired with sparse, lyrical text introduce the concepts in an easy-to-grasp form for youngsters just beginning to meet the printed page. Representing all seven continents and creatures from a variety of habitats, this board book is a comprehensive introduction to some of childhood's best-loved beasts: penguins and lions and otters, oh my!Families who love nature and the world’s wild places will enjoy sharing these animal opposites.

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.

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.
