Review
"Back from the Brink: Saving Animals From Extinction" by Nancy F. Castaldo is a nonfiction book featuring several stories about animals that nearly went extinct. Whooping cranes, condors, wolves, and bald eagles are a few of the animals discussed. The book may be challenging for some readers, but there is a glossary in the back and the stories are interesting to read and not overly long. There are also links at the back of the book for kids who want to learn and do more to protect endangered animals. ~Reviewed by Kate Radke
