Review by Booklist Review
Young readers searching for a fun, yet informative, introduction to wild animals will find a perfect match in the new Go Wild! series (2 titles). Each title includes information about the featured animal's diet and physical characteristics, as well as a map showing where it can be found, a photo-illustrated time line of its lifespan, and activities for kids and their caregivers to take part in. In Go Wild! Pandas, readers will learn that these solitary bears spend much of their day snoozing and eating bamboo, and that their unique coloring helps them stay camouflaged within their habitat. Colorful double-page spreads feature vibrant photographs, many of which are labeled or accompanied by interesting fact bubbles. Bright colors are also used in headings and as page backdrops, which suit the books' lively vocabulary and upbeat tone. Examples of comparative size are integrated into the main text to help children better understand the physical characteristics of these animals, as are ways for youngsters to help protect animals and their habitats. An exciting, attention-grabbing nonfiction series sure to captivate young animal lovers.
