Polar Bears and Penguins: A Compare and Contrast Book

This book is really fun. It tells you how polar bears and penguins are alike and how they are different. It has great pictures of animals. It shows different types of penguins and bears. Before I read this book, I thought polar bears and penguins lived at the same end of the Earth. They don’t. Polar bears live in the Arctic and penguins live in the Antarctic. I didn’t know about the yellow-eyed penguin until I read this book. I really like sloth bears because they’re so furry. I like that the mother polar bear protects her young, and that penguins gather in hundreds and thousands. The picture of the Northern Lights is so colorful- it’s amazing! At the end of the book, I found out that seals eat penguins, and get eaten by polar bears. That’s awesome! There are also activities at the end of the book to do. I think any kid who likes animals would like this book.
