Editorial Reviews

Although the text is brief, students still can learn a great deal about these North American animals. Each volume answers questions about the animal’s habitat, appearance, eating habits, process of development, and survival techniques. Aimed at primary grade children, the books are beautifully illustrated, colorfully attractive, and factually accurate. Perhaps even more valuable would be the use of this series as high-interest, low reading level nonfiction for older readers. The stunning photographs bring the animals to the fore, and the graphic design is clean and informative. Students will find this series highly accessible as well as visually appealing. Glossary. Websites. Index. Highly Recommended.
