Summary

“Baby animals in all their glory,” an award winning photographer “strives to educate her readers while winning their hearts with her photography” (The Boston Globe). Bestselling author and photographer Traer Scott captures the magic and wonder of a young animal's first weeks of life in this heartwarming collection of photographs. Featuring portraits of more than thirty baby animals, Wild Babies provides a glimpse into the rarely seen world of newborn creatures. From rambunctious little kangaroos and fluffy fox cubs to a wide-eyed elephant seal pup and a tiny painted turtle, these playful images are paired with engaging text that highlights the remarkable moments in wild infants' first days as they learn to eat, walk, swim, and fly. Animal lovers will delight in these close-up shots and fun trivia celebrating the unique personalities of irresistibly cute creatures navigating their way out into the world for the very first time.   “We dare you not to smile while looking at these baby balls of fluff and feathers.” —Readers Digest   “Is there anything sweeter than an infant opossum with soft gray fur, translucent pink nose and shining onyx eyes? If so, it’s probably in Traer Scott’s portrait-photographs for Wild Babies, a book that softens the heart so swiftly that it’s hard to get through two pages without murmuring ‘aww!’” —The Wall Street Journal   “Animal lovers, prepare yourselves to be absolutely smitten with these close-up photos of baby animals as they navigate the wondrous first weeks of their lives. . . . [A]n encyclopedic breadth of the baby animal kingdom.” —My Modern Met

    For a period of 85 years, the M Street/Dunbar High School was an academically elite, all-black public high school in Washington, D.C.  As far back as 1899, its students came in first in citywide tests given in both black and white schools.  Over this 85-year span, approximately 80 percent of M Street/Dunbar’s graduates went on to college, even though most Americans, white or black, did not attend college at all. Faculty and students were mutually respectful to one another, and disruptions in the classroom were not tolerated. Yet, in this era of best practices, this public high school, whose founders experienced slavery and segregation firsthand, has received virtually no attention in the literature or in policy considerations for inner-city education.  The purpose of this study is to explore the history of a high school that was successful in teaching black children from families at all income levels to excel and to determine if the learning model employed in the past could be successful in a modern inner-city public education environment.
