Arctic & Antarctic Wildlife from A to Z

From the Antarctic fur seal to tiny zooplankton, this photographic nonfiction picture book takes children on a captivating journey through the extraordinary wildlife of the Arctic and Antarctic regions. Along the way, they'll discover fascinating wildlife-like emperor penguins, narwhals, and leopard seals-that reveal how wildlife adapts to some of the coldest environments on Earth.

Created for inquiring kids who love learning about the world around them, Arctic & Antarctic Wildlife from A to Z features vivid animal photographs, engaging questions that promote inquiry, and fun facts that encourage conversation and discovery. While it's organized alphabetically, this isn't a traditional alphabet book. Instead, it introduces young children to wildlife they may not have encountered before-supporting observation skills, vocabulary development, and early science literacy. Each animal is clearly labeled to show whether it lives in the Arctic, the Antarctic, or both polar regions. A helpful pronunciation guide is also included for grown-ups reading with children.

Ideal for children ages 3 to 8, this engaging nonfiction book invites young readers and pre-readers to explore new ideas, ask questions, and expand their understanding of animal habitats, marine life, and polar ecosystems. Whether used in classrooms, libraries, or at home, it offers parents, caregivers, and educators a valuable resource for fostering early learning and scientific curiosity.

Part of the Animal Kingdom ABCs series, this book celebrates the diversity of our planet's wildlife-one continent (and pole) at a time.
