Supersized!
Children will want to read all the books in this series once they see how completely engaging each book can be. The books are laid out nicely with pictures and text on every double-page spread. A map highlighting where the animal lives, quick fact boxes on every page, and large beautiful photographs bring each creature to life. An illustration shows the reader the size of the animal compared to something they know. The series is extremely well-done with age appropriate text as well as clear, colorful photographs that will inspire children to pick up these books to discover many amazing facts. Bibliography. Glossary. Table of contents. Index. Highly Recommended.

Reading list. Glos., ind.
