Little Hippopotamuses

Born to Be Wild will delight young readers with its irresistible photographs of young animals. Simple text invites readers to follow the lives of each animal, beginning with its birth and playful early life with its mother, through its lessons in hunting and survival in the wild, to the time when it is mature enough to leave home and start its own family. Each chapter includes a question-and-answer feature about the animal's behavior and physical traits, while a two-page "animal profile" at the end of each book provides quick facts about the animal's size, senses, habitat, and animal relatives.
