Emi and the Rhino Scientist (Scientists in the Field) Paperback – Illustrated, October 25, 2010

This biography is so inspiring for Rhino lovers, especially children who feel the pull of activism for saving a species. This is a sweet story, great for teaching children that love conquers all.

Great journalism! This book combines great photographs following biologist Terri Roth around as she works with Emi, a Sumatran Rhino at the Cincinnati Zoo, with an informative text that situates the Sumatran Rhino, its biology, natural history, conservation, and future in the context of Rhino biology in general. I can't think of a better introduction to any big animal for children 6 or 8 or up. Moreover, adults, even well-read adults, can learn from this book.Pride of place on a natural history shelf--great for handing to younger visitors!

This clear, well-written book is full of fascinating information about rhinos and scientists. It's not only educational but fun, too, and the photos are great! This is a great book for parents and children to share at home and for teachers to use in school.

Since I have an interest in wildlife, I love this book as much as my child does. Great pictures, and what an inspiring story!
