Pandas

Black eyes blink ... Teeth grind bamboo ... Meet the panda! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Pandas treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of this marvelous Asian mammal. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the bear's relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while an ancient Chinese folk tale about the panda adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
