Mina, The Black Leopard Cub Book 1

This is the first book in the "We Learn With Books: Educational Series" about rare, extinct, and endangered wildcats.

Mina is a friendly, young leopard cub who lives with her mom--the Leopardess--and her twin brother Myles.

She narrates the book and details the lives of beautiful, unique, black leopard cubs and their Leopardess moms.

The goals of this book, and future books in the educational series, are to do the following: promote community literacy; promote group and family story hours; and to educate young readers and their family members about rare, extinct, and endangered wildcats.
