The book begins with an introduction to a baby Kinkajou. There is a physical description of the Kinkajou that includes a little box at the bottom of the page with a shadow illustration of how large the adult Kinkajou is compared to a human child. An explanation is given of where they live with a map imposed onto the photos of the types of trees they live in. The unique physical features of the Kinkajou are outlined with arrows pointing to parts of the anatomy of the Kinkajou. The author gives details on the baby kinkajou’s development from birth to independence. She explains who their predators are, how the mother protects and feeds her baby, and what types of food the kinkajous eat once they are weaned. At four months old the kinkajou has learned skills to survive as an adult in the Amazon River. The book concludes with an illustrated glossary. The closing page gives a list of books and an online website a child can explore for more information.

I received this book free from the publishers in exchange for my honest review.
