One hungry coyote attempts to feed his growing family through the seasons.  In some seasons finding food is hard for the coyote, in others, it is easier.  Coyote has to do all of this around people, too which makes his job even harder. 

Hungry Coyote is a wonderful children's environmental education book perfect for a large age range of kids from 4-12.  There are great descriptions of the weather that uses alliteration, rhyming and a larger vocabulary.  There are also very realistic descriptions and pictures of how coyotes hunt, what they eat and their habitat.  Overall, this book provides a good view into how an animal that a lot of people live near lives their own life and interacts with humans.

A short book, good for your own little ones.  The book has a sweet, calming tone and is great for parent-child bonding time. This works well if you need a quick read for bedtime or even for going to explore new things.  The pictures are black and white sketches, simple and are able to tell the story itself.
