About the author
Sally Morgan
290 books4 followersLibrarian Note: There is more than one author in the GoodReads database with this name. See this thread for more information.
Sally Morgan is a leading author of children's information books. She has written more than 250 titles, covering wildlife, natural history, science, geography, and environmental topics. She writes for all ages from first readers through to 16+ readership as well as books aimed at family readership.
Sally read Natural Sciences at Cambridge which was followed by several years of research into the restoration of derelict land. She then taught biology for a few years before turning to writing. With her love of the natural world and her concerns about the loss of habitats worldwide, it was not surprising that she chose to write about wildlife and environmental issues.
She is lucky enough to own a small organic farm in Somerset. When she is not writing she can be found on the farm looking after her rare breed poultry, sheep and pigs or weeding the kitchen garden! Conservation is important to her and the farm is managed to improve biodiversity. Keen to connect people with their food, Sally has set up a small education centre on the farm, where people can learn about smallholding, butchery and other rural skills.

May 23, 2016 Personal Response: I read this book called Bears to my little cousin Carter which he though it was a pretty cool book it has a lot of interesting facts that I did not know before I read it to Carter and he did not know what all the different species they had.
Plot: This book was about all of the different types of bear species and where they come from. Bears are well know mammals that have sharp teeth, small eyes, they are furry, and they have sharp claws. There are eight types of bears there is the Grizzly, polar black, Asian, sun, sloth, and spectacled bears. There fur keeps them warm, there teeth help kill their prey, and their claws help also killing there prey. Those are the key features that make the bears who they are to this day.
Characterization: My cousin Carter is 8 years old and has a lot of cool interests that I have so I enjoy reading to him or now with him. He loves the outdoors but he is also a shy kid so he usually doesn't give much input on the books but he said that he liked it and it has a lot of cool facts that he did not know. So overall he really liked the book.
Recommendation: I recommend this book to the age group of 3- and up because it is a great book for people to just learn about bears. I say this because it has a lot of details that could be very useful and that is who I recommend this book to.
