Deb (Readerbuzz) Nance's Reviews > Extinct: An Illustrated Exploration of Animals That Have Disappeared

This oversized picture book tells the story of the recent extinctions of felines, reptiles, swimmers, birds, amphibians, marsupials, primates, and other groups of animals, accompanied with drawings of the lost animals that will make your heart wrench with sadness. The text is just perfect for children, with just the right amount of information, and the pictures highlight the fascinating details of the now-extinct animals. This is a book I want to share with my naturalist friends and librarians.
