Koalas - Library Binding

by Rachael Hanel (Author)

Tufted ears wiggle ... Tree-hugging paws grip ... Meet the koala! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Koalas treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of this marvelous Australian mammal. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the marsupial's relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while an Aboriginal tale about the koala adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
