The range of behavior is broad and intriguing-from reptiles hatched from eggs and surviving by following their instincts to mammals creating sophisticated homes and using their wiles for the protection of their young. Fraser's writing is direct, and her observations are clearly expressed. Typically, one, two, or three pictures appear on a double-page spread, showing different animals in pleasing, colorful illwstrntions. The final pages offer a few facts about certain baby animals and tips on what to do if a wild animal baby is found.\" - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eBooklist\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"Offers a broad look at the way young animals are protected by their parents and by their own instincts. Fraser organizes her text by types of care, safe homes, moving young from place to place, alerting to danger, fighting for defense, and clustering in large groups for protection, with the beginning and ending of the work focusing on the care of human babies and children. Includes many types of animals, from the tiny (snails) to the huge (elephants) and the charming (cats and kittens) to the not-so-charming (a head-­on view of an alligator with her babies in her open mouth).\" - \u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44887434658021,"sku":"NP9780064452113","price":8.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780064452113.jpg?v=1730226111","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/how-animal-babies-stay-safe-isbn-9780064452113","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
