Kinkajous
From the Series Jungle Babies of the Amazon Rain Forest
A mother kinkajou finds a spot in the hollow of a tree to give birth to her baby. She carefully watches over her little one for up to two weeks, until the tiny, raccoon-like animal can open its eyes. So begins the life of this jungle baby. In this coming-of-age introduction to these adorable mammals, readers will learn how kinkajou babies spend their days, how they find food, and how they can use their long and strong tail like another arm. The colorful interior spreads and gorgeous photos of kinkajou babies are sure to delight emergent readers.
