Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Moto and Me tells the remarkable firsthand story of wildlife photographer Suzi Eszterhas's care for an orphaned baby serval-a small, spotted wildcat-in Kenya. When a grass fire separates the serval from his family, a ranger asks Suzi, who is living in a bush camp and is skilled with animals, to be the serval's foster mom.The book chronicles Suzi's tender care of Moto, including how she feeds, bathes, and plays with him, and helps him develop hunting skills. Her goal is to help him learn how to survive on his own in the wild. After 6 months, he is ready to leave-a difficult good-bye, but exactly what Suzi had worked for. Stunning photography illustrates this touching and rare wildlife rescue story.LEVELINGGrade Range: 2-6Fountas & Pinnell: PLexile: 860LCOMMON COREW.3.1,2,2a,2b,4,7,8,10L.3.3,4,4a,4b,4c,4d,5,5b,5c,6SL.3.1,1a,1c,1d,2,3,4,6RF.3.3,3a,3b,3c,3d,4,4a,4cRI.3.1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10
