Steve Jenkins
Animals smooth and spiky, fast and slow, hop and waddle through the two hundred plusÂ pages of the Caldecott Honor artist Steve Jenkinsâ€™s most impressive nonfiction offering yet. Sections such as â€œAnimal Senses,â€ â€œAnimal Extremes,â€ and â€œThe Story of Lifeâ€ burst with fascinating facts and infographics that will have trivia buffs breathlessly asking, â€œDo you knowÂ a termite queen can produce up to 30,000 eggs a day?â€ Jenkinsâ€™s color-rich cut- and torn-paper artwork is as strikingly vivid as ever. Rounding out this bountiful browsersâ€™ almanac of more than three hundred animals is a discussion of the artistâ€™s bookmaking process, an animal index, a glossary, and a bibliography. A bookshelf essential!
