by Coyote PetersonThe Emmy-winning host of Brave Wilderness shares his wildest encounters with animals across the world in this illustrated book for young readers.After catching his first snapping turtle as a kid, Coyote Peterson was fascinated by wild animals. Now he shares that fascination through his YouTube channel, Brave Wilderness, and his Animal Planet series, Coyote Peterson: Brave the Wild. Over the years, he and his camera crew have had some incredible moments with wildlife, both on and off camera.From the time a giant alligator nearly caught Coyote in its bone crushing jaws, to the time an 800-pound Grizzly Bear helped him teach viewers what NOT to do when facing one of them in the wild, every tale is full of fast paced action and daring adventure. With danger often looming for Coyote, these stories remind readers that animals rule the wild places of this planet, and if we respect them from a safe distance, even the most frightening creatures are more likely to be afraid of us than we are of them.
Coyote Tales
by Thomas KingTwo tales, set in a time “when animals and human beings still talked to each other,” display Thomas King’s cheeky humor and master storytelling skills. Freshly illustrated and reissued as an early chapter book, these stories are perfect for newly independent readers. In Coyote Sings to the Moon, Old Woman and the animals sing to the moon each night. Coyote attempts to join them, but his voice is so terrible they beg him to stop. He is crushed and lashes out — who needs Moon anyway? Furious, Moon dives into a pond, plunging the world into darkness. But clever Old Woman comes up with a plan to send Moon back up into the sky and, thanks to Coyote, there she stays. In Coyote’s New Suit, mischievous Raven wreaks havoc when she suggests that Coyote’s toasty brown suit is not the finest in the forest, thus prompting him to steal suits belonging to all the other animals. Meanwhile, Raven tells the other animals to borrow clothes from the humans’ camp. When Coyote finds that his closet is too full, Raven slyly suggests he hold a yard sale, then sends the human beings (in their underwear) and the animals (in their ill-fitting human clothes) along for the fun. A hilarious illustration of the consequences of wanting more than we need.
