With the help of “creature teachers,” wildlife instructor, Karla Majewski, instructs her young audience about the lives and behavior of five special animals—a sulfur-crested cockatoo, an African pygmy hedgehog, a Nile monitor, a lemur, and a llama.

 

Most of all, the children learn about the homes and environments these animals would inhabit if they lived in the wild.

 

But Angel, Brillo, Foster, Pops, and Julie Ann cannot live in the wild because they have always lived with human families, and they would not survive on their own.

 

So they have come to live with Karla and her family in their private home zoo. Here—and at schools, libraries, fairs, and other gathering places—children become acquainted with Karla’s special animals and learn to appreciate their place in our world.
