Penguins: biology, habitat, and conservation

Rachael Hanel’s high-school nonfiction book surveys penguins through several connected topics: life cycle, diet, anatomy, habitat, and adaptations to extreme environments. Conservation issues extend the focus from how these birds live to the challenges surrounding their survival. Photographs and fact features support the main text, while a glossary, selected bibliography, websites, and index provide reference tools for further exploration. The subject is presented as both an introduction to penguin biology and a guide to the ways these flightless birds are suited to their environments.
