Review by Horn Book Review

These books follow a similar format, providing facts about each animal's habitat, human interaction with, and special features, including how they hunt, mate, and raise their young. The information is presented in a straightforward manner, with occasional sidebars, including the ramifications of cross-breeding wolves and dogs, and how tail positions differentiate the canines. Color photographs aptly illustrate points in the text. Bib., glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
