We have all heard the scary stories about Wolves. Wolves are, indeed, potentially very frightening creatures, especially if you are Little Red Riding Hood or you’re afraid of being bitten by one and turning into a werewolf! But, if you’d like to know the real story about these fascinating, wild animals, read on! Over the years I’ve written many books about my favorite thing – nature’s wild animals. Many of them have content and/or images that may not be suitable for younger children. So, I’ve decided to create a series about them that would both teach kids about these fascinating creatures and also entertain them. This book is the second in the series. I hope your children will enjoy them and begin a lifetime where they are as captivated by these wild creatures as I have been my whole life.I’ve kept these books shorter than most of the ones I’ve written to hopefully keep and hold the attention of children who are pretty easily distracted in today’s fast-moving world.My plan is to continue creating a “children’s version” of as many of my wildlife books as I’m able with the hope that it will introduce each child who reads them to the wonders of what I believe to be nature’s most beautiful, wild creatures."Wolves, A Children's Guide" is full of beautiful, color photos of many different kinds of Wolves. It also includes plenty of interesting and fun facts about this mysterious and extraordinary beast that you may not know about them. Did you know Wolves can swim? “Wolves” will answer questions like:What exactly is a “pack” of Wolves?Why does a Wolf howl?How many babies do Wolf mothers have?Where do Wolves live?Are Wolves really dangerous to people?Wolves! is a perfect teaching tool for children who would like to know about one of the wildest animals in the "Canidae" family (which also includes foxes, jackals, coyotes and dogs).Each chapter is full of great info, like:Threats - What could possibly threaten a Wolf?
