Giraffes Aren't Half as Fat
Publisher: Brookfield 1995.
Fine with no dust jacket Millbrook Press First Edition; First Printing Paperback 4to; Unpaginated pages; HC with library binding and glossy illustrated boards but no dust jacket. A fine copy with beige end papers. It appears not to have been read yet. This book answers the questions you didn't even think to ask about giraffes -- how do they position themselves to sleep or to drink from a river or stream (talk about awkward!)? How do they bathe? What do they eat? But this is not just a book of facts! It's a feast for the eyes! If you haven't seen a giraffe up close, this artist lets you get a really good look, and it some ways the pictures are even better than photos would be in portraying what's special about the giraffe.

Caterpillars, Bugs, and Butterflies
Publisher: Minnetonka 1996.
New with no dust jacket; May have light shelf wear from display and storage NorthWord Press Paperback Take-Along Guides; Square 8vo 8" to 9"; 48 pages; This fun and informative book introduces children to many of the creatures they will find in their backyards. They will learn to find and identify eight caterpillars, 12 bugs, and ten butterflies and moths. Each page page that describes an insect or its larvae tells where the creature can be found, what it eats, and what it looks like. The three pictures on the page show the insect itself, the insect eating, and the insect in its habitat. Besides the "field guide" pages, there are "something to do" pages related to some of the creatures discussed. One gives instructions for capturing a wooly bear caterpillar for the winter so it can be watched as it changes into a moth. Another shows how to use a "cricket thermometer" to tell the temperature. The last explains how to make "moth sugar" to attract moths to observe at night. The edge of the book's back cover is ruled into eight inches so young explorers can measure the size of various creatures they find. The last seven pages of the book are a scrapbook for the reader's drawings, notes, or anything else.; ISBN: 1559716746

Big Book of Animal Stories
Publisher: Mineola, NY.
New Dover Paperback 8vo; 208 pages; Written by a naturalist, these exciting stories show animals interacting in scientifically accurate ways as to natural enemies, type of home, foods eaten, habits, and special characteristics. But on another level, these animals, shown in black and white sketches dressed in human clothes interact as people would, with character traits and emotions. His stories give children an opportunity to observe the consequences of greed, selfishness, teasing, boasting, and other undesirable qualities as the animals interact. In case the children might miss these insights about character and consequences, Burgess often points them out in the text, either in verses or as he develops the plot, inviting readers to anticipate what might happen. He uses his stories to teach moral values. This book carries the complete texts of Buster Bear, Old Mother West wind, Grandfather Frog, and Peter Cottontail .; ISBN: 0486419800

Burgess, Thornton W., Illustrated by: Fuertes, Louis Agassiz
The Burgess Bird Book for Children
Publisher: Little, Brown and Company, 1920 Boston, MA.
Book. Book condition: Good. No Jacket. Hardcover 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" tall "This book was written to supply a definite need. Its preparation was undertaken at the urgent request of booksellers and others who have felt the lack of a satisfactory medium of introduction to bird life for little children. As such, and in no sense whatever as a competitor with the many excellent books on this subject, but rather to supplement these, this volume has been written. Its primary purpose is to interest the little child in, and to make him acquainted with, those feathered friends he is most likely to see. Because there is not method of approach to the child mind equal to the story, this method of conveying information has been adopted. So far as I am aware the book is unique in this respect..It is intended to be at once a story book and an authoritative handbook..Mr. Louis Agassiz Fuertes, artist and naturalist, has marvelously supplemented such value as may like in the text by his wonderful drawings in full color. They were made especially for this volume and arte so accurate, so true to life, that study of them will enable any one to identify the species shown.." 32 full color photographic plates illustrating over 50 species. xvi + 353 pages. Book is in GOOD condition; expected wear for a book of this age and genre, with some discoloration to rear cover; text pages clean; binding tight. Pictorial cover; no dust jacket.
