Description
Long teeth gnaw...Flat tail slaps...Meet the beaver!
Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, this middle-grade nonfiction book treats researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of these industrious mammals.
It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the water-loving rodents' relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a beaver legend from the indigenous Tsimshian people of the Pacific Northwest adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.

School Library Journal
Gr 5-8-Stewart continues with a topic near and dear to devotees of the 590s, once more providing both fascinating and well-written facts and some truly arresting images. Scientific material on each species is offered, along with pop cultural and historical information. Fans of previous books in this series, such as Sea Lions and Piranhas (both of which SLJ called "remarkable for their clear information and exceptional photography") and Bats, Crocodiles, and Killer Whales will flock to these new entries. Thorough in scope and elegant in design, these stellar titles will attract the browser and the report writer alike.
