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.
