Summary
They run in packs， stalk their prey， and howl at the moon。 And no matter where you are—they're always lurking somewhere nearby。 Wolves， the predatory puppy dogs of the wild， are feared and loved by people everywhere。 But are they misunderstood？ In this fascinating level 2 reader， you'll learn that there's much more to being a wolf than most people could ever believe。 Did you know that each pack has a pecking order？ That wolves can "talk" to each other using body language？ Or that they're actually not out to attack humans， they usually leave people well enough alone？ Full of incredible photographs and interesting information， NGR Wolves will appeal to all kids。

This book has EXCELLENT visual presentation， whether it came to color choices， photos， or layout。 （Also did anyone else laugh out loud at the photos where the wolves look like they're all making -_- faces， like they're 200% done with this BS， whatever this BS might be？） The information is simplified to just about the right level， which I'm very impressed by， given that making complicated things simple for children's books is really hard to do and people tend to either not simplify it near enough This book has EXCELLENT visual presentation， whether it came to color choices， photos， or layout。 （Also did anyone else laugh out loud at the photos where the wolves look like they're all making -_- faces， like they're 200% done with this BS， whatever this BS might be？） The information is simplified to just about the right level， which I'm very impressed by， given that making complicated things simple for children's books is really hard to do and people tend to either not simplify it near enough or overshoot and treat the kids like idiots。 I learned some fun scientific facts， enjoyed the photos （see， the grumpy wolves photo mentioned earlier）， and the "palabras claves" boxes did a great job at introducing new vocab， whether for children or for adults who're learning Spanish。 。。。more

No Awards Appropriate Grade Levels: 1-2This book gives information about wolves and their lives。 In one section they even compare wolves and dogs。 It talks a lot about how they live， which could be interesting for children。 I like that this book gives a lot of information， but it's not overwhelming。 I also like that on some pages there are "Word bites" which give a definition of a word a child might not know。 They pictures in the book are also very nice。You could use this book to teach about wol No Awards Appropriate Grade Levels: 1-2This book gives information about wolves and their lives。 In one section they even compare wolves and dogs。 It talks a lot about how they live， which could be interesting for children。 I like that this book gives a lot of information， but it's not overwhelming。 I also like that on some pages there are "Word bites" which give a definition of a word a child might not know。 They pictures in the book are also very nice。You could use this book to teach about wolves and different survival skills。 You could also use it as a compare/contrast book for comparing wolves and other animals。 。。。more

Wolves tells all about wolves， including which type is the most common， their habitats， and what they eat。 At the end of the book， there are questions that the kids can answer， which the right answers at the bottom of the page。I liked this book。 I let my nine year old brother read it， since he loves animals， and he absolutely loved it！This would be a great tool in a classroom to teach about wolves or if there were a unit on mammals， this would be a good book to read during that time。

Wolves are a popular topic with children。 Young readers can't help but want to know everything they can about their favorite animal。 These National Geographic Readers are a great resource for these type of young readers。 Not only are they well-written， sharing great factual information， but they have amazing photographs and a fabulous book design。 I even learned some things reading this book。 For example， I didn't know that there are more than thirty kinds of gray wolves。 Wolves are a popular topic with children。 Young readers can't help but want to know everything they can about their favorite animal。 These National Geographic Readers are a great resource for these type of young readers。 Not only are they well-written， sharing great factual information， but they have amazing photographs and a fabulous book design。 I even learned some things reading this book。 For example， I didn't know that there are more than thirty kinds of gray wolves。 。。。more

I added a star because I noticed that this book is printed in the USA。 Not many books are anymore。 This level 2 non-fiction reader about wolves includes a QR code on the back that directs you to a video about all the other titles available and a website where you can become a "super reader"。 By siging up on that website you can play games， take quizzes and earn points towards "super reader" prizes。 Page 26 of the book has pictures and talks about wolves that have been killed for their fur。 There I added a star because I noticed that this book is printed in the USA。 Not many books are anymore。 This level 2 non-fiction reader about wolves includes a QR code on the back that directs you to a video about all the other titles available and a website where you can become a "super reader"。 By siging up on that website you can play games， take quizzes and earn points towards "super reader" prizes。 Page 26 of the book has pictures and talks about wolves that have been killed for their fur。 There isn't anything "graphic/violent" portrayed in the picture （just hanging coats/pelts） but it might be something you would want to look at before handing it to a child unless they've already seen Disney's 101 Dalamations。 。。。more

This simple introduction to wolves is designed for students just beginning to read on their own。 Through vivid color photos and simple text， young readers are introduced to wolves' lives， along with a bit about what is being done to preserve them in the wild。 The text mentions the wolf reintroduction programs that have occurred in the US。 However， it does not explore the idea that while wolves help balance the ecosystem， the wolves themselves have also been exposed to legal and illegal shooting， This simple introduction to wolves is designed for students just beginning to read on their own。 Through vivid color photos and simple text， young readers are introduced to wolves' lives， along with a bit about what is being done to preserve them in the wild。 The text mentions the wolf reintroduction programs that have occurred in the US。 However， it does not explore the idea that while wolves help balance the ecosystem， the wolves themselves have also been exposed to legal and illegal shooting， trapping， and poisoning throughout the American West。 Some argue that because of this， the wolves would be better off not having been released at all。Parents note: This book includes a photograph of a wolf family consuming a bloodied deer carcass， which may upset highly sensitive children。 。。。more
