Zoo Guide: A Bible-Based Handbook to the Zoo

This convenient book was created in order for you to have a reference that wouldn't refer you back billions of years, but that would give you clear information about the animals' class size, habitat, diet, and other fun information. Features and notes about God's design are also included along with a full-page, full-color photo. More than 100 animals are featured! 219 indexed pages, softcover, plastic-spiral-binding.

Knopf is proud to reissue it for today's young children. For ages 4-8.

Panda Cam: A Nation Watches Tai Shan the Panda Cub Grow
By Friends of the National Zoo / Simon & Schuster Trade Sales

What's black and white and cute all over? Tai Shan, the panda cub born at the Smithsonian's National Zoological Park, whose first months of life have attracted millions of rapt visitors to the Zoo website's panda cam!

Panda Cam tracks the increasingly ridiculous cuteness of Tai Shan, the National Zoo's baby panda, over his first seven months as shown through the Zoo website's "panda cam"--a camera continually trained on the Fujifilm Giant Panda Habitat to capture his every move. With an introduction by Susan Lumpkin, director of communications of Friends of the National Zoo, providing an overview of Tai Shan's life so far, these adorable color photos with corresponding captions feature Tai Shan's cutest moments--snuggling with his mom, taking his first steps, lounging in his beloved tub, munching on bamboo, climbing trees, and frolicking in the snow.

Given the media frenzy that has surrounded every move of the cub's young life, Panda Cam is sure to cause panda-monium among the millions of fans of this panda cub superstar.
