Ever heard of a binturong? Binturongs live in trees and smell like popcorn. They are about as big as medium-sized dogs and have strong tails that help them climb trees. All About Asian Binturongs tells you all about these unusual and wonderful animals who live in the rainforests in Southeast Asia.

"The Animals around the World: Asia series (6 new titles) introduces beginning readers to some of the continent’s lesser-known and more unusual animals. Double-page spreads with largescale, color photos depicting the animals up close and in action form the core of this visually appealing series. A few simple sentences on each spread relate key information about the animal, including its physical characteristics, habitat, diet, life span, and special features. All about Asian Binturongs describes this animal’s physical characteristics, such as sharp teeth and large claws, which give the binturong its “bearcat” nickname (despite being related to neither bear nor cat). Each book ends with its animal’s range map, but some volumes depict this more clearly than others. All of the titles in this interesting series, however, helpfully conclude with animal fun-facts and more detailed descriptions of the animal’s body parts and their uses."--Angela Leeper, Booklist, October 15, 2024
