K-Gr 2–These titles will grab readers' interest with a close-up look at the featured animal on the cover, set against a bright green background. Ideally suited to new readers looking for appealing nonfiction, the books provide basic facts about the animals' life cycles, diet, and predatory threats in two to three sentences per spread accompanied by a full-color photograph on the facing page. Some photographs include arrowed labels. Words appearing in the glossary are printed in boldface type throughout. Each book concludes with statistics on the animal's size, diet, and life span. Enjoyable supplements.Cathie Bashaw Morton, Millbrook Central School District, NY
