Snow leopard : ghost of the mountain  Cover Image Book Book

Snow leopard : ghost of the mountain / Justin Anderson ; illustrated by Patrick Benson.

Anderson, Justin. (Author). Benson, Patrick. (Added Author).

Summary:

"The people who live among the high peaks of the Himalayas tell stories of a mysterious animal called the gray ghost. To see one, you'd have to be very lucky indeed. Join a zoologist in the Himalayan mountains as he searches for the elusive creature. With her pale gold and silver-gray coat painted with black rosettes, she blends so well into the boulders, it's no wonder she's thought of as a ghost of the mountains. But the fortunate few who spot her are rewarded with a sight they will never forget. Written by an expert with firsthand experience, beautifully illustrated, and interwoven with fascinating facts, this vicarious look at a breathtaking animal includes an end note suggesting resources to explore"--Amazon.
