March 3 is UN World Wildlife Day, and here’s a portion of the message from António Guterres, Secretary-General of United Nations: “Each year, on World Wildlife Day, we celebrate the beauty and wonder of our planet’s wild plants and animals…. On this World Wildlife Day let us commit to preserving our invaluable and irreplaceable wildlife for the benefit and delight of current and future generations.”

To continue the celebration, you might want to share my series of four wildlife picture books that feature the stunning photography of Stan Tekiela: Baby Bear Discovers the World; The Cutest Critter; Jump, Little Wood Ducks; and Some Babies Are Wild.
