PreS-Gr 1—More standout nonfiction in this charming series. Animals and vehicles are always winners in terms of kid appeal, but the clear, attractive photographs set these apart from the herd. Simple sentence structure and a clear layout add to the overall package; ideal nonfiction for the very young.
These attractive books provide bite-size facts about their subjects, including their habitats, physical appearances, family relationships, diets, and behaviors. Engaging, bright close-up photographs are prominently featured, and each book concludes with anatomically labeled photos of its respective animal. Spare, kid-friendly texts with highlighted vocabulary words make the information accessible to new nonfiction readers. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Seedlings titles: Camels, Pandas, Polar Bears, Sea Lions, Whales, and Zebras.
