Being a Toucan

by Katherine Ponka

Overview

Vibrant, playful toucans are beautiful birds to watch at the zoo, or, even better, in the rainforests of Central and South America. If readers can't be in either of these places, this book is the next best thing. Each page asks the reader to imagine themselves living the wild life of the colorful toucan. They will picture themselves with long bills and a funny way of eating. They will imagine sleeping in a tree hollow and even sword fighting another toucan with their bill. Fun text and science concepts are a great combination in this look at a toucan's life.
