Overview
Each title in this delightful and informative series of young naturalist books looks at a different animal and invites youngsters to guess what it is. Opening with a three-word description and followed by a series of colorful drawings depicting a different part of the animal's body, each book gradually reveals the whole animal to the child reader. Accompanying text and additional illustrations provide further clues to the animal's identity and give an insight into how it lives. The books conclude with an illustration of the animal's young, a map of the world showing its homelands, a fun quiz, and a glossary.Various clues to the elephant's identity are provided on each spread. Facts about what the elephant looks like, what it eats, how it behaves, what type of environment it lives in, what noises it makes, and what its young are called are included. Clever art shows the different body parts of the elephant without giving away its identity. A map of the world at the end of the book pinpoints where the African elephant can be found.
