Reviews
Animals with especially unusual characteristics are highlighted in this series. Each two-page spread includes a paragraph identifying the creature, highlighting its distinctive aspects. In some cases, readers also learn how that uniqueness helps the animal in the wild. Coverage includes familiar creatures like tigers, and tarantulas, but most species will be new to young readers, and not frequently found on the animal shelves. One or two photographs per page provide clear visual examples within layouts that are neatly varied and uncluttered. Basic data on areas like range and size is usually skipped, but the engaging, informal tone of the text combined with the emphasis on fascinating traits and behaviors should draw readers. VERDICT Fun facts, unusual animals, and strong potential appeal to browsers.--Steven Engelfried, Wilsonville Public Library, OR ""School Library Journal""
