Wolves by Seymour Simon



This nonfiction book provides great information for students about wolves.  The author provides facts such as the different types of wolves, how big wolves can get, why wolves howl, among many other things.  Simon and the Smithsonian team up to create a wonderful nonfiction book on wolves that all students will enjoy!

I would use this book in the fourth grade to go right along with the NC Standard Course of Study Competency Goal 1.  The specific objective I would want to cover would be: "1.03 Observe and discuss how behaviors and body structures help animals survive in a particular habitat." This book provides the information needed to discuss how behaviors and body structures help animals survive in certain habitats.
