In the Jaguar's House is a celebration of the world's wildlife through animal poetry and photographs taken in faraway places such as Africa, South America and the Galapagos Islands. Poems written for young readers are infused with humor and delight, crafted by close observation, and convey a deep appreciation for wild animals and the natural world. Several of the poems represent endangered animals and encourage readers to take active part in protecting them. Included in the book are informative "fun facts," resources for further reading and ideas on how kids can help wildlife survive and thrive.
