"Moon Bear" by Brenda Z. Guiberson, Illustrated by Ed Young

Content Provider	WatchKnowLearn
Description	Watch this video to see how illustrations from the book Moon Bear compare to real moon bears. Moon Bears is a beautiful picture book for children, written by Brenda Z. Guiberson and illustrated by Caldecott Medal winner Ed Young. In this video, see images of Ed Young's charming illustrations and see real-life moon bears as they search for food, play among the trees and enjoy life in the wild. Moon Bears are so named because of the white moon-shaped blaze on their chests. The moon bears are seldom seen but their footprints, claw marks, hair, and bear nests high in the trees give us clues about how they live. This book and trailer help to raise awareness of moon bear cruelty. Sadly, there are now more moon bears in captivity than in the wild, as these animals are being ""farmed"" for their commercially valuable bile. Join Macmillan Children's and Animals Asia as they raise money to rescue moon bears from cruelty on bear farms. This would be a great resource to use in conjunction with a lesson and/or teachable moment on endangered animals.
