Lions is a non-fiction book describing the life of a lion. It gives children simple facts about where a lion lives and what it eats. The book also discusses how a lion raises its cubs. The photographs are beautiful and the facts are simple and easy to read for young children. This book is part of a series including many other animals. It is great for an introduction to non-fiction unit. Other books like this one include Dolphins, Tigers, and Bears which are also part of The National Geographic Readers collection.

This is such a good book for kids starting to learn about lions. It gives good information and has great real life pictures of lions. The book is set up to help kids learn with definitions and pronunciation of words. It even has a small quiz at the end of the book.

Lions are a part of a big cat family, including tigers, leopards, and jaguars. Male tigers have manes, and female lions don't have manes and are smaller. Lions lay in the shade to keep cool. They live in scorching and dry areas. Lions live in Pride, that have about 40 lions in them.

We love Nat Geo books for their excellent photos, but this one was also an easy and fun read. My 5 year old loves the animal jokes too.

I liked that a snarl means, “Back off!” And there was a baby on that page!

I liked that lions can be heard from five miles away.

And I liked that lions are very, very strong!

This book is very beginner but gives great information about lions. This can be a fun and interesting read if there are activities that could go along with it. I think this is a great book for Kindergaten books.

National Geographic put together a very interesting book on Lions. Kids are interested in animals and National Geographic brings raw information, amazing photographs, and fun facts. It's an easy read and offers vocabulary words at the end. This book is perfect for beginner readers.

Summary: This book teaches many facts about what lions hunt, what they eat, how they communicate, about their cubs, and more.

Evaluation: I feel that this book would be very interesting for students to read, especially with the interesting pictures that are throughout it.

Teaching Idea: This book could be used in the classroom when talking about predators and prey and the relationships between the two. This book could also be used to talk about the food chain and help the students to make sense of it. The teacher could have the students make a food chain that compares all of the animals that are in the book and other books about animals that the teacher may have previously read.

National Geographic: Lions

By Laura Marsh

1. K-2

2. No awards

3. In this text, we learn about lions. The different types of lions, where they live, what they eat, and other fun facts about them.

4. I love the kids books from national geographic, they make learning about animals and other things more fun for the students. There is activities in the booklets as well with online that you can do with the students.

5. As an activity, I would ask my students questions about the things we learned about lions. Then I would have them make lions masks with paper plates and orange and yellow tissue paper. On the back of the masks I would ask all of the students to write 2 fun facts they learned about lions.
