Zebras

Striped legs gallop . . . Stiff mane quivers . . . Meet the zebra! Brimming with vivid photos and scientific facts, Zebras treats middle-grade researchers and wild animal lovers to a comprehensive profile of this marvelous horse-like African mammal. It covers zoology topics such as anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle, as well as species conservation efforts and the animal's relationship with humans throughout history. Sidebars, a range map, and a glossary support the main text, while a zebra myth from Botswana adds a cross-curricular cultural layer to the title.
