Los Puercoespines [Spanish]

By: Bahn, Christopher

From prickly porcupines to slippery seals, animals are wonderfully diverse. Translated into North American Spanish, this popular zoology series for elementary students studies mammals, birds, reptiles, fish, and invertebrates from around the world. Beautiful photos pair with factual life science text to explore the featured creature's appearance, habitat, behaviors, and life cycle. Each title also includes a related folktale or myth for cross-curricular learning. Despite its fierce-looking quills and high-pitched chirps and squeaks, the North American porcupine is a shy, gentle rodent. This zoology title for children, filled with beautiful photos and factual life science text, examines the mammal's anatomy, feeding habits, life cycle, and porcupette care. Its forest habitat is described, too. A folktale from the Ojibwe people explains how the porcupine got its quills. Part of Creative Education's popular Planeta animal series, this North American Spanish translation supports elementary-aged readers with captions, on-page definitions, and an index.
