Meet the Meerkat by Darrin Lunde
Learn about the cute and fuzzy creatures known as meerkats and spend a day in the Kalahari Desert. A series of questions and answers introduces children to the life and habitat of Little Meerkat. Through playful and informative text early readers learn what meerkats eat, where they live, and how they scamper and play together. Patricia J. Wynne's scientifically accurate illustrations make these exotic animals come to life in any climate. Back matter includes additional child-friendly facts perfect for the earliest of animal lovers.
Darrin Lunde has worked as a mammalogist at the American Museum of Natural History and at the Smithsonian Institute. His work has brought him into contact with all kinds of animals, big and small, throughout the remote forests of South America, Africa, and Asia where he camped for months at a time to survey species diversity and to discover new species. He is the author of Hello, Bumblebee Bat, a Theodor Seuss Geisel Award Honor Book, After the Kill, and other books about animals. He lives in Washington, DC. Kelsey is an illustrator and lover of all things nature. Her work centers around an array of natural history subjects, often inspired by the myriad ways humans connect with and study the natural world. She received her first scat identification book around the age of 10 and loved that it helped her learn to identify the natural world around her. Her gouache illustrations focus on natural history subjects like taxonomy, biodiversity, and taxidermy, as well as related subjects like astronomy and the ways humans relate to the natural world. Her first book as an author, What We See in the Stars: An Illustrated Tour of the Night Sky, came out in Fall 2017. She lives in Minneapolis with her husband, Nick, and their two cats, Jamie and Fiona.
