The kratt brothers biography

Are you a fan of PBS’s hit animated show, Wild Kratts? Do you love learning about animals and the natural world? If so, you won’t want to miss Martin and Chris Kratt: The Wild Life, the latest addition to the Step into Reading®(Step 3) collections.

In this engaging biography, young readers will learn all about the Kratt brothers, Chris and Martin, and how they turned their love of animals into an amazing career where they have produced, directed, and starred in their own PBS shows such as “Zoboomafoo”, “Kratts’ Creatures”, and “Wild Kratts”. The brothers have traveled the world and encountered incredible creatures, all while combining science education with fun.

But how did it all begin? As children, Chris and Martin were fascinated by the natural world and spent countless hours exploring the woods and fields near their home. As they grew older, their passion for animals only grew stronger, and they eventually decided to pursue careers in wildlife filmmaking.

Martin (born December 23, 1965) and Christopher Kratt (born July 19, 1969) are American zoologists, educational nature show hosts, wildlife filmmakers and YouTubers. Sons of musical instrument manufacturer William King "Bill" Kratt, the brothers grew up in Warren Township, New Jersey and together created children's television series Kratts' Creatures, Zoboomafoo, Be the Creature (which aired on the National Geographic Channel and CBC), and Wild Kratts (which airs on PBS Kids and TVOKids).
