Fans of the bestselling series that began with Tree: A Peek-Through Picture Book can take an up-close look at animal families in this beautiful book with peek-through holes.

Young children will enjoy peering through holes and seeing animal parents and their babies in global scenes of security and love. Featuring elephants in their herd, polar bear cubs safe in their cave, otters snuggling as they drift in the ocean, and many other animal families, each page in this engaging and educational nonfiction book celebrates the bonds of parent and child.

It's a perfect way for families to share a love of science and nature together. And it's an ideal gift for Mother's Day and Father's Day.
"Youngsters will derive great comfort and satisfaction knowing that animal families, whether on land, in trees, or underwater, stick closely together, providing love, warmth, defense, and guidance—just as readers’ own families do. . . . Warm and soothing—the very epitome of family."—Kirkus
