Giant Pandas are a rare sight in the wild, but these imposing bears are captured beautifully in this title from the "Animal Safari" series. Vivid color photographs display these black and white beauties in their natural habitat as they eat and climb in solitude. One or two sentences in large print accompany each picture in this nonfiction book for emergent readers. Words that may be unfamiliar to the reader are printed in bold type, and they are defined in the glossary. Topics covered include descriptions of what Giant Pandas are, where they live, and what they eat. An emphasis on the rarity of these animals provides an introduction to the concept of endangered species. Heartwarming scenes of a mother and baby panda, as well as the young bear's attempt to venture out on its own, are helpful for teaching about a Giant Panda's growth to maturity. The index and contents pages work together to direct a young reader to the information sought, which is helpful in preparing for future research projects. Children are encouraged to learn more about these bears by visiting web and library resources that are provided. Young readers will enjoy learning to read as they spend time with these cuddly giants.
