Animals Illustrated: Arctic Fox

Animals Illustrated mixes fun-filled animal facts suitable for the youngest of readers with intricately detailed illustrations to create a unique and beautiful collection of children’s non-fiction books about Arctic animals.

Each volume contains first-hand accounts from authors who live in the Arctic, along with interesting facts on the behaviours and biology of each animal. In this book, kids will learn about the many body adaptations that make Arctic foxes perfectly designed for life in the Arctic, as well as some of their amazing abilities—like being able to travel huge distances in search of food, even swimming between islands on their quest!

Praise

“Brian Koonoo’s words provide useful facts and details about all aspects of the Arctic fox, striking a good balance between enough detail for readers to understand what truly makes this a unique creature without overwhelming readers with too much detail….For young readers interested in learning more about Arctic foxes in particular, the north, or the intersection of animals and Inuit peoples, Arctic Fox is a terrific introduction or starting point for a school project. Highly Recommended.”—CM: Canadian Review of Materials
