Alex's Field Guides

A charming story that's also a clever allegory for the disappearance of elephants in the wild. Meet Alex. She's an explorer who LOVES elephants, and she's going on an expedition to find some. How hard could it be? It turns out, pretty hard! Alex asks one animal after another, but none of them has seen an elephant. Not the giraffe. Not the snake. Not even the lion! Where are all the elephants? Readers will chuckle as they spot the elephants hiding in plain sight - an encouraging first step for budding explorers!

The second book in a clever, interactive series focusing on finding endangered animals. Today, Alex is going to help Atticus spot a real tiger in the wild. Atticus has never seen a tiger before. And Alex knows everything about tigers. She's even made a journal about them! Alex explains what to look for: stripes, big teeth, nocturnal. But each new fact only leads Atticus to a different wrong animal! And each time Atticus hopefully asks, "Is this a tiger?" he's disappointed to discover that, though it meets the criteria, it's not! Will they ever manage to find a tiger? Kids will love searching for tigers - and learning why they're so hard to find!

Dive deep into the mystery of sea turtles in the latest addition to the Alex's Field Guides series. The Curious Explorers Club has one question for Alex: Where do sea turtles live? As her friends share their theories, Alex checks her journal for clues. How big are they? What do they eat? Where do they lay eggs? The explorers follow the answers to find out: Where exactly do sea turtles live? The answer surprises everyone! Kids will follow Alex anywhere to solve an animal mystery - even to the bottom of the sea!
