Amazing photographs and detailed text make this not only a go-to resource but also a fun read for curious kids. As an adult I enjoyed learning about opossum, yapok, kangaroo (including tree kangaroo!), koala, numbat and many other types of marsupials. Includes index, glossary. ( )

Very beautiful photographs and interesting facts. would be a book for a student interested in the subject or a related subject. Grade 3 and up.

This book is about the different animals from Australia.

K-4 ( )

VOYA: 4Q, 4P
Amazing pictures, one small Q issue, "all mammals have fur or hair". What about whales and other water mammals? For P, I think again, it's a lower rating because it is informational.

Sarah Mulhern describes Nic Bishop's Marsupials as a "gateway book" in her review at The Reading Zone. I am trying to expand my horizons with more nonfiction, and this sounds like a great one.
