'While there are plenty of picture books introducing readers to endangered animals, the illustrations in this one make it stand out. Author/illustrator Kundu uses crumpled paper to form the animals and then places them within digital environments and photographs the whole. The results - such as an eastern imperial eagle that soars through amber skies and a bulky polar bear on a floe - arestriking.' - Kirkus Reviews
'Kundu offers a noteworthy introduction to unusual and often-endangered wildlife. The illustrations, which feature crumpled paper art and digital backgrounds, glow with light and seem more three dimensional than is possible on a page...This vibrant work examines 16 unique and endangered animals. Recommended both for its unconventional visual treatment and the fascinating information that complements the illustrations.'- School Library Journal
'Motivate future wildlife conservationists through this series of striking images depicting endangered and at-risk species from around the world. It'sa stunning visual blend of art, nature, and zoological facts.' -Foreword Reviews
