Review by Horn Book Review

Each simply written book dutifully covers its subject's habitat, diet, and parenting method and describes a prominent characteristic of the animal; natural and human-made dangers to the animals are also discussed. Crisp color photos illustrate the books, which begin with a page of words to sleuth for in the text and end with suggestions for adults to enrich a child's experience with the books. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Early Bird Nature Books titles: [cf2]Raccoons[cf1] and [cf2]Gray Wolves[cf1].] (c) Copyright 2010. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
