The Nature Kid's Guide to Goats: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Goats!

Bonk! Two small heads lower and charge at full speed. They crash together with a thud, shake it off, and do it all over again. They're baby goats, and they've been at it all morning. Goats have lived alongside people for over 10,000 years, and it's easy to see why. They give us milk, cheese, soft fiber for clothing, and leather. They clear weeds from land that machines can't reach. They even visit schools and hospitals as therapy animals. Is there anything a goat can't do? "The Nature Kid's Guide to Goats" takes curious kids ages 7-12 inside the world of one of the most useful and entertaining farm animals on the planet. Why do goats have rectangular pupils instead of round ones? How can they eat thorns, bark, and rough branches that cows and horses can't digest? What makes fainting goats tip right over when startled, then pop back up like nothing happened? Your child will be full of facts before the book is finished. Short, punchy sentences and charming surprises fill every page. From tiny Nigerian Dwarf kids that fit in your lap, to massive Boer goats heavier than most grown men, to fluffy Angora goats that grow fiber as soft as silk, every goat in this book has something remarkable to offer. A book for every kid who has ever met a goat at a petting zoo and thought: I want to know everything about that animal. There are over 300 breeds of goats in the world, more than any other farm animal. Once your child discovers just how extraordinary they really are, they'll never walk past a goat pen the same way again. Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series. Time for your child to meet their new favorite farm animal.
