Library Media Connection Review for Spectacular Animal Towns

Animals in their habitats—this is a topic interesting to young readers and one with a strong curricular connection. This series includes a variety of animals including insects, mammals, and ocean life, and each title describes the unique homes of the featured animal. Stunning photos depict the habitat and there are many interesting shots of the animals. Factoids are included throughout which provide additional information about the habitat and other animals and plants that live there. The Coral Reef differs from the other titles because of the variety of animal life in the reef itself; this variety is described and detailed well. Readers can learn more about the topic from the book, and then explore websites and other books. Bibliography. Glossary. Index. Recommended.
