Book excerpt: Some of the most amazing and unique animals on the planet live in the jungles of the world. From the tigers roaming the rain forests of Asia, to the gorillas in the mists of central Africa's jungles, and the rare pink dolphins at play in the Amazon, Jungle Wildlife has them all. This book will introduce you to animals you have never heard of and tell you what you want to know about some of your favorites. Find out about everything from eating and behavioral habits, to where they live and how they are coping with the destruction of their habitat and the danger posed by poachers. Don't be surprised to find a giant snake in the water or a kangaroo in a tree! Every book in the Into the World's Amazing Jungles series is a graphic and visual journey into the remaining rain forests of the world and their fascinating inhabitants--jungle tribes, wildlife, bugs, and vegetation. Each title is also filled with interesting and amazing facts and figures about the world's jungles, the colorful microcosms of the primitive and mysterious world of our ancestors. Each title in this series includes color photos throughout, and back matter including: an index and further reading lists for books and internet resources. Key Icons appear throughout the books in this series in an effort to encourage library readers to build knowledge, gain awareness, explore possibilities and expand their viewpoints through our content rich non-fiction books. Key Icons in this series are as follows: Words to Understand are shown at the front of each chapter with definitions. These words are set in boldfaced type in that chapter, so that readers are able to reference back to the definitions--building their vocabulary and enhancing their reading comprehension. Sidebars are highlighted graphics with content rich material within that allows readers to build knowledge and broaden their perspectives by weaving together additional information to provide realistic and holistic perspectives. Educational Videos are offered in chapters through the use of a QR code, that, when scanned, takes the student to an online video showing a moment in history, a speech, or an instructional video. This gives the readers additional content to supplement the text. Text-Dependent Questions are placed at the end of each chapter. They challenge the reader's comprehension of the chapter they have just read, while sending the reader back to the text for more careful attention to the evidence presented there. Research Projects are provided at the end of each chapter as well and provide readers with suggestions for projects that encourage deeper research and analysis. And a Series Glossary of Key Terms is included in the back matter containing terminology used throughout the series. Words found here broaden the reader's knowledge and understanding of terms used in this field.
