Join Brian Keating as he describes: Swimming with the canaries of the ocean in Cunningham Inlet Playing with minke whales in the Antarctic Meeting the superbears of Frobisher Bay Watching kings in their finest suits on South Georgia Island Living on the edge in the Antarctic Each story, told by Keating with boundless energy and enthusiasm, provides details in easily digestible bites and features full-colour photographs with fact-filled cutlines, a small glossary, and an information sidebar - "Brian's Notes." Also included in the book are an activity to encourage students to have their own backyard adventures, a full-colour world map showing the locations of Keating's wildlife adventures, and an index. Keating has been a weekly guest on CBC Radio Calgary for nearly two decades and has been featured bi-weekly on the Discovery Channel for the past six years. In addition to his full time job at the zoo, Keating is an Adjunct Assistant Professor of Anthropology at the University of Calgary, a pilot, a scuba diver, and mountaineer.

The Kids’ Ultimate Animal Activity Book takes the best animal material from Stacy and Ken’s previous titles and puts it in a single book that kids will love and come back to time and again. Organized in a see, learn, do (interact) format, the book first lays the groundwork for observing and learning about the animals—from their behavior and habitat to the truths and myths about them—and then jumps into lots of animal-related activities (like finding caterpillars or inspecting lizards).
