Editorial Reviews

This series provides the reader with a wide range of animals. Each two-page spread covers one animal, and includes the name of the animal, some interesting information, and a Fact Box. The pictures are large close-ups, and enhance the text.

Gr 2–4—Each title looks at nine animals, with a couple of basic facts per page, usually focusing on one or two particular characteristics. Framed photographs provide fairly strong visual appeal, though not all directly support the text. (Each book includes two "Critical Thinking" questions at the end.) These are usable but unexciting, and Most Adorable Animals misidentifies an animal with one of its questions. Thematic grouping is strongest in Most Endangered Animals, which describes the main threats to each animal. Working Animals refers to behavior that indirectly benefits humans, such as the shark's role in the food chain, rather than animals working closely with people. Most Adorable Animals takes advantage of very cute pictures; all of the "most adorable" are mammals. Strangest Animals offers a wider range and introduces rarely covered animals—the fossa and the dumbo octopus. VERDICT Suitable choices; purchase as needed.
