Non-fiction Endangered Species - Buddy Comes to Breakfast
- Open Publication Structure eBook File
Description
Students will be able to learn about the habits and habitats of the Desert Tortoise, which has been on the Federal Endangered Species list as 'threatened,' for more than a decade.
"Buddy Comes to Breakfast" is a beautifully illustrated non-fiction narrative about an adopted Desert Tortoise (Gopherus Agassizii), who lives in a back yard in Nevada. The author's photographs, watercolor illustrations, and observations ensure that it is engaging and educational reading for all ages. Each of the 25 illustrated pages contains a single line of a primer level poem about friendship that can be memorized by pre-emergent readers and used as a mnemonic device for recalling the information on the page, while learning the social skill of what it is to be a friend.
The text is written at a 6th to 7th GLE and includes a list of internet resources for more information as well as a glossary of terms.
Quantity discounts (10 or more) are available and a study/reading guide will be coming in Fall 2022.
