Editorial Reviews
Aimed at recently literate young naturalists, this gallery of animal mouths, tongues, and teeth makes the connection between diet and dentifrice, while introduction a light load of special terminology like “scavenger” and “chameleon.”... Stephens's accurate color illustrations offer rousing close-ups...and other memorable enticements to linger over the simple, three-or-four-sentence-per-page text.
