An exuberant, rhythmic text by Bill Martin focusing on endangered animals from around the world, illustrated by Eric Carle, creator of the bestselling classic The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

The creators of the children's classic Brown Bear, Brown, What Do You See? team up again in this special book about a very important topic - endangered animals. A bald eagle soars, a spider monkey swings, a macaroni penguin struts and a red wolf sneaks through Bill Martin Jr's rhythmic text and Eric Carle's vibrant images, and all are watched over by our best hope for the future - a dreaming child.
