Gr 2-3-Though not particularly helpful for quick identification-"Most butterflies fly during the day," while "Most moths fly at night," is a characteristic distinction-these dual profiles of common creatures should give budding naturalists an increased understanding of how scientists use appearance and behavior to classify sometimes-similar living things, along with introducing important terms like "cephalothorax" and "chrysalis." Spreads feature sharply detailed paired photographs of identified specimens seen from the same angle and at roughly equal size (i.e., not always to scale), with accompanying explanatory statements. The highlighted differences are then recapped on a single spread, and every book closes with a salient and potentially surprising new fact about each type of animal. Consider these books to lay groundwork for nature expeditions and for later studies of taxonomy. (c) Copyright 2011. Library Journals LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc.
