In this engaging series, readers are given the chance to watch as four baby animals--from endangered or threatened species--grow up. Simple, short sentences and captivating photographs portray the life of each animal as it develops and learns to live independently of either its human caretakers or its natural parents. With each enchanting, close-up photograph, readers are drawn into the lives of the animals as they learn, play, and grow!
Sometimes, just sometimes, a human being and a wild animal make a special connection that changes both of their lives. So it was with Rockport, Maine's Harry Goodridge and the harbor seal pup he named Andre. The two became inseparable, though the seal was free to come and go as he pleased. (His floating enclosure in the harbor simply minimized his presence in skiffs owned by yachtsmen, who complained about his sunbathing in their dinghies.)
