A Kid’s Guide to Backyard Animals contains easily digestible information and captivating facts—about the most common animals kids see most often—that will help children discover how to be expert nature explorers and why protecting them is important for the planet, no matter their age!

Learn all about the amazing animals right outside your door in A Kid’s Guide to Backyard Animals—a handy, easy-to-carry guidebook for explorers ages 6 to 8 that shows you how to identify 40 animals that are commonly found in the United States. The book covers five animal types: mammals, birds, reptiles, amphibians, and invertebrates, and includes chapters on bats, bears, bobcats, chipmunks, coyotes, deer, elk, foxes, mice, opossums, prairie dogs, rabbits, raccoons, skunks, squirrels, voles, Canada geese, cardinals, ducks, hawks, hummingbirds, owls, pigeons, robins, woodpeckers, lizards, snakes, turtles, frogs, toads, salamanders, ants, bumblebees, butterflies, dragonflies, grasshoppers, ladybugs, roly poly bugs (pill bugs), snails, spiders, and worms.

Kids learn all about these amazing creatures with fascinating facts, how to identify each animal (what it looks like and size), what it eats, whether it’s nocturnal or diurnal, and its habitat and range (including maps). Check the glossary for animal-related terms you might not know, keep track of the animals you’ve seen in a handy log, and try out a fun DIY project that helps you invite frogs to your backyard by building a comfortable frog pond.

With A Kid’s Guide to Backyard Animals, children can become expert nature explorers.
