Review by School Library Journal Review

Gr 3-6-Exploding with astounding full-color photographs and written in an appealing conversational tone, these are books for every kid. How often does one have the chance to see a photo of jaguar drool or a dogfish pup in the egg case? Not often enough. Beyond the photos, the texts will keep kids interested and turning pages to discover more and more facts. "Explorers' Corners" provide first-hand accounts from the books' photographers. Fun, interactive glossaries invite thorough reading and will help kids retain new words and facts. These compelling, browseable, and completely engrossing titles will delight readers.

Review by Horn Book Review

With David Doubilet and Jennifer Hayes. Similar in trim size and layout to National Geographic Kids magazine, this volume provides readers with lots of information about sharks, from types of creatures to habitat and behaviors to conservation efforts. Readers will sink their teeth into the striking photographs, including a useful "Photographic Diagram" labeling body parts and their uses. A "Fun with Sharks" section adds interest. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. (c) Copyright 2011. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
