Animals at the Edge
By Jonathan Baillie
This book teaches you about animals that are going extinct or may already be extinct! I give this book 8 out of 10 because there is not lots of information about each animal. I think that this book was well writen considering they dont know much about these animals. The athour also included information on the scientists that have been stuiding these remarcable creatures.
I really liked this book because it tells you about different animals that are at the edge of extintion. And where they live. It was very interesting. I would recommend it to animal lovers and people who like cute things!
This book was well written but it could have had a LOT more information. I liked the photographs but it is definitely not my favorite.I am generous to rate it 6 out of 10
I loved this book it really gets exotic and going extinct animals out that need our help. and some of them are sooo cute it just makes you want to save them all.
I thought this book was very interesting because it talked about the people that research the animals. My favorite animal in this book would have to be the long ear Jerboa. I would have to give this book a 8 out of 10.
It was a good book. I liked the rare animals and the information given about it. But it could have been better. I thought there could have been more rare animals.
