About the author Isabella Broccolo! Isabella decided to research sugar gliders after watching the T.V. show Wild Kratts on P.B.S. They had a little segment that had a sugar glider. After seeing the cute fury animal Isabella decided people should know more about them. Isabella loves all animals and will do anything she can to help!
