Face to Face with Lions (Face to Face with Animals)

I bought this to go along with my boys unit study on safari animals. It's a great book, absolutely full of information and written in an interesting way. My boys are 5 and 7 and while they enjoyed it, I skipped around a bit and only read parts of it to them. It's very wordy and a lot of it was a little too much for them right now. They did enjoy the book though. The pictures are real photos of lions and not drawings so that was a big draw for them (and me!) and there were plenty of little short paragraphs and captions that captured their interest for this school year. It will be an excellent book to revisit in a few years to do a more in-depth study of the subject.

An excellent, educational book for youth (or anyone!) on African lions, written by an expert couple, Beverly and Dereck Joubert, who have spent a great deal of their lives actually living in bush country, studying and photographing lions and other African wildlife. The wonderful photos in the book, as well as the information they share regarding the personalities, habits, lifespan, threats, and conservation issues are invaluable in the effort to bring awareness to the precarious existence of lions and other wildlife in Africa.

Gift for my nephew

My wildlife-obsessed ten-year-old loved this book! The information is thorough and well-written, and the photography is beautiful! I highly recommend this book for upper-elementary or middle school kids who love big cats, African wildlife, or animals in general.Also, I'd like to respectfully point out that Amazon's book review does recommend this book for grades 4-8, and that it is clearly marked as 32 pages. Please don't give a great book a bad review just because you didn't read the description carefully--it's unfair to the authors and to potential customers.

The Cover says it all,it's a beautiful little book with Pictures that will take you on a Journey to there homes = )))Sending love your way,John from Los Angeles California

Very interesting and informative book about lions.

Amazing

Interesting for students to learn more about lions and the Joubert's experiences.

Everything perfect. Great Service!

Das Buch ist eine gelungene Mischung excellenter Tierfotographie und gelungener Texte. Es spricht vom Alltag der Löwen, wie Löwen "denken" und wie man hilft, ihr Überleben zu sichern. Denn das ist keinesfalls so gesichert, wie oft behauptet.Werden Sie mit diesem Buch zum Freund der Löwen !

I bought this for a relative who just loves lions. It was very informative and had lovely coloured pictures. It arrived on time and was well packaged. Would recommend this for all ages
