About this item

Sugar gliders are social animals, but they arent your usual pet. These cute, cuddly, gliding marsupials were first brought to the US in 1993, and have since become wildly popular. As small as a grain of rice when they are born, these exotics only grow to be 3 to 5 ounces, which makes them perfect to tuck away in your pocket! If you are looking for an affectionate, unique addition to your family, a sugar glider might just be for you!

About the Author

Karen Latchana Kenney

My favorite book as a child was an educational book titled I Want to Be a Reporter. It was about the job of a reporter and described the skills needed to tell stories in writing. I asked my mom to read it to me every night. Since discovering that book, I have loved the idea of writing for a living. Now I get to write about all kinds of topics . . . from the life of one of the greatest scientists of all time, Stephen Hawking, to the ancient Aztec civilization. I have been writing and editing for more than ten years, for all grade levels.
