Books with title Groundhog Day

Each year on February 2, thousands of people descend on the small town of Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. They await the weather predictions of a furry little groundhog called Punxsutawney Phil. Hes said to be able to correctly forecast if there will be 6 more weeks of winter or if spring will come early. Readers of this charming volume will learn how this tradition got started and just how accurate Phil has been over the years.

In Groundhogs, young readers will follow a groundhog as it looks for food, avoids predators, and finds a mate. Vibrant, full-color photos and carefully leveled text will engage children as they learn about life as a groundhog. A labeled diagram helps readers identify a groundhog’s body parts, while a picture glossary reinforces new vocabulary. Children can learn more about groundhogs online using our safe search engine that provides relevant, age-appropriate websites. Groundhogs also features reading tips for teachers and parents, a table of contents, and an index. Groundhogs is part of Jump!’s My First Animal Library series.
