School Library Journal
Gr 1-3 These brief introductions to their respective subjects include descriptions of the animals' habitats, physical characteristics, and behavioral traits. On each spread, one or two easy-to-read paragraphs appear opposite an appealing full-page, full-color photo. While these titles are attractive, books in the "New True Book" series (Children's) are targeted at a similar audience and have more detailed and informative content. They are better choices for browsers and report writers. Katherine Borchert, Floris Elementary School, Herndon, VA Copyright 1999 Cahners Business Information.
