{"product_id":"wildlife-in-the-city-diane-swanson-9781770503366","title":"Wildlife in the City","description":"\u003cp\u003eThere are coyotes in the crosswalk and frogs in the swimming pool, raccoons on the fire escape and garter snakes in the garage. With all its many buildings, streets and parks, the city may be home to people, but it is also home to wildlife. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePeregrine falcons raise their young on a Calgary high rise, red squirrels scold skaters from Ottawa snow banks, and in Montreal furry families of skunks move into vacant lots next door! All sorts of unique and wily wildlife have made themselves at home in the cracks and crannies of Canadian cities. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eKids don't have to go to the zoo to see animals that used to roam free -- they just have to recognize untamed city critters for what they are! \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eDiane Swanson introduces kids to ten furred, feathered, or scaly urban residents, exploring their successful adaptation to the concrete jungle: how they move about, find food, communicate with each other, and make a home for themselves and their young. Douglas Penhale's lively illustrations provide visual detail and delight for budding naturalists in the urban ecosystem. \u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Diane Swanson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1770503366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781770503366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Whitecap Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/20\/2020\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 70\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.50lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.90h x 9.90w x 0.30d","brand":"Diane Swanson","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48487362920703,"sku":"9781770503366","price":15.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_164b8357-edac-43af-898a-44495689cc79.jpg?v=1778060051","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/wildlife-in-the-city-diane-swanson-9781770503366","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
