Children's Literature - Suzanne Karr

A rollicking environmental take on the Twelve Days of Christmas, this entertaining counting book loses none of its charm despite its important message. The text presents endangered animals from lemurs to bandicoots, while the illustrations manage to pack each captivating page with the featured animal and all that came before. These beasts are so incredibly, jubilantly alive that any reader will immediately marvel at the wonders of nature and understand the need to save these creatures before it's too late.
