Explore the many ways that animals teach their young to thrive in this charming picture book. A bald eagle teaches an eaglet to fly. A black bear teaches its cub how to pluck berries from a branch. An ermine teaches its baby how to tunnel through the snow. And a spotted seal teaches its pup how to dive. Young children will learn all about these animals and more, as each spread also includes a short piece of nonfiction about each creature. Lovingly illustrated and lyrically written, this is the third children's book written and illustrated by the husband-and-wife artist and author team Mitchell Watley and Sarah Asper-Smith.
