I Am A Rare Animal

In I am a Rare Animal, readers will experience nature through the eyes of P.S. 316 Elijah G. Stroud Elementary School’s brilliant fifth grade students–and through the eyes of the animals they researched. This book merges fact and imagination to bring creatures from around the world to life. Inside, you will find guidebook pages that provide essential facts from bears to butterflies to bombardier beetles, and everything in between. Alongside these researched guides, students wrote stories and letters from the perspective of their chosen creatures. These animals have friends, enemies, hopes, and dreams. Dive into these wild stories!
