Laugh and learn with fun facts about mammals, from the land to the sea, the smallest (pygmy shrew) to the largest (blue whale), and more—all told in Dr. Seuss’s beloved rhyming style and starring the Cat in the Hat!

“Yes, people are mammals—amazing but true! Oh, and cats in tall hats? Well...yes. We’re mammals, too!”

The Cat in the Hat’s Learning Library series combines beloved characters, engaging rhymes, and Seussian illustrations to introduce children to non-fiction topics from the real world! Journey around the world and discover:
 
  • what makes an animal a mammal
  • what the world’s smallest and largest mammals are
  • how different mammals take care of their babies
  • and much more!

Perfect for story time and for the youngest readers, Is a Camel a Mammal? All About Mammals also includes an index, glossary, and suggestions for further learning.

"There is a big gap between 'concept' books written for preschoolers and nonfiction that requires fluent reading skills. The Cat in the Hat's Learning Library books introduce beginning readers to important basic concepts about the natural world. They provide the critical foundations upon which complex facts and ideas can eventually be build. In addition, The Cat in the Hat's Learning Library shows young readers that books can be entertaining and educational at the same time. This is a wonderful series!"
