The Nature Kid's Guide to Capybaras: A Level 2 Reader for Curious Young Kids Who Love Capybaras! (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798898181055)

Did you know capybaras are rodents? Giant, 140-pound rodents, basically guinea pigs the size of a large dog. And every animal in the jungle wants to be their friend.

Scroll through the internet and you'll see it: birds perched on capybaras, monkeys lounging against them, even crocodiles chilling beside them. These oversized rodents have become famous for being the most relaxed, friendliest animals on the planet. But there's so much more to them than memes, and your young reader is about to become a capybara expert.

"The Nature Kid's Guide to Capybaras" introduces children ages 6-10 to the world's largest rodent. How did a relative of the hamster get so enormous? Why are they such excellent swimmers with their webbed feet? And what makes every other animal want to hang out with them?

Designed for Level 2 readers with short, confidence-building sentences, this book takes your child to the wetlands and rivers of South America where capybaras spend their days munching grass, floating in rivers, and letting other animals use them as a living couch.

The coolest animal your child hasn't learned about yet.

Capybaras are social creatures that live in groups of 10 to 20, sometimes up to 100. They communicate through clicks, whistles, and barks. Baby capybaras can swim almost immediately after birth. And here's the wildest part: their teeth never stop growing, which is why they spend up to eight hours a day chewing.

From viral sensation to genuinely fascinating creature, this book shows kids why capybaras earned their reputation as nature's most lovable giants.

Thousands of young readers have explored the Nature Kids Guide series. Your child's new favorite animal is waiting.
