Lemurs (Living in the Wild: Primates) Paperback – February 1, 2012

This has been one of the most popular books in my classroom library since I purchased it! The photos and text are just so well-done! I am most grateful that you all had this quality of a book available!

I needed a pic of a red ruffed lemur and I found ONE in this book..it also has great pics of the ring tailed and brown lemurs...Is an inexpensive yet helpful book if you need reference photos..Would definitely buy again!

2 total lemur loving granddaughters. they both love it! one is 6 and the other is 9. usually their opinions . . . . do not coincide attttttallllllll

Wasn't for myself, but my Make-A-Wish of AK & WAWish Kid" loved it!!

My 8 year old son loved this book. Everyday he was presenting another interesting fact to me. He was able to complete his 3rd grade research project on Lemurs with this book alone.

Short but informative about lemurs. They are wonderful somewhat unappreciated animals.

Lemurs are a funny brood of animals. Learn more about them in this sweet non-fiction picture book written by Claire Throp and published by Heinemann Library.#NF #PB #lemurs

We read lots and lots of usbourne and national geographic books with my 5 year old but they don’t have any lemurs.This is not organised by species or habitat but is about lemurs as a whole. It’s more of a text book than a story & I constantly have to read ahead & filter the language “strepsirrhini (prosimians) is a suborder or primates. The suborder includes.....”. It’s a good book well written and full of information that would be good in a school. In the national geographic books you can read the head lines to the 2 year old, boxes to the 5 year old and the full text to a 7+ year old. This is mostly full text with occasional boxes.

This softback book was slightly smaller/flimsier than I had envisaged, but it was very well received by my grandaughter (just turned 8) who discovered a passion for Lemurs on a recent trip to a safari park. She enjoys facts about her interests, and it kept her absorbed for some time, and so overall I’m very pleased with my purchase.

Fantastic book
