Praise for the Young Zoologist series:
"What makes this series stand out is that the illustrations,
bite-sized facts, and clear labels make it easy for the youngest of
readers to navigate the text and absorb the information there." --
Booklist "The well-illustrated Young Zoologist series guides
readers through the lives and notable features of the spotlighted
animals... prepares the young zoologist (aka the reader) for their
upcoming adventure in the field, laying out tools necessary for
investigating the animal. The bright, semi-realistic artwork could
hold these titles on its own, but the easily digestible facts
regarding life cycle, behavior, and conservation make the volumes
well rounded. Each work is pragmatic in addressing the challenges
these creatures face while helping aspiring zoologists learn ways
to protect animals and their environments." --Booklist
