A brief look at some rare animals around the world, why and how they've become endangered. Some extinct animals are mentioned. And finally, what will happen if nothing is done to help them recover.
The vocabulary is a little advanced for a beginner reader. But the pictures are interesting and informative.

A kind of depressing story, some people are working to save endangered animals but most people don't seem to care. This book has some interesting facts and ideas. Will enough adults, after reading this book, do anything to help?

My boss says I have to weed this endangered species book from 1984. Weird, right?
