Say hello to a pangolin, and learn all about this incredible endangered species–and why they need protecting–in this clever, funny, and informative nonfiction picture book, illustrated by a Caldecott Honoree. “Wild, fun, and truly eye-opening, Meet the Wild Things gets us up close and personal with some of the world’s most amazing creatures. With this series, Hayley and John Rocco are doing more than entertaining our kids–they’re inspiring them to care about the future of our planet.” –Brad Meltzer, bestselling author of the Ordinary People Change the World series Did you know pangolins are the only mammals with scales? Not even the teeth of a lion can break through their tough armor. And did you know pangolins have a super-sticky tongue as long as their entire body? (The better to eat 20,000 bugs a day with!)
