Steve Irwin by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara (Author) and Sonny Ross (Illustrator)
Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara pens a wonderful introduction to the larger-than-life Steve Irwin. Starting the book when Irwin was young shows the deep roots of Irwin's passion for wildlife, especially the creatures that many fear or consider monstrous. Sonny Ross's cute and appealing illustrations help keep the reader engaged in both Irwin's life and the animals he cared so deeply for.
While the final section that delves a bit deeper into Irwin's life could've added more nuance, perhaps this is an expectation beyond the considerations for this children's series.
