Editorial Reviews
This book’s clever format provides two levels of text: one a simple story for quite young readers, and another, under the flap, a more involved scientific lesson. The colorful illustrations do an excellent job of supporting the text, with pictures that are lively and involving “
The most entertaining of these books is Hungry Animals. The pictures are charming, especially one of the snake being borne off with the outline of the toad still visible through its skin.
