Review Quotes

Real photographs of animals connect children to the wild worlds around them. These titles focus on how people and animals are alike, through shared concepts like communication, where they live, and what it means to work. A real highlight of this series is that it teaches social-emotional learning with animals as a high-interest gateway to the topic. The human connection is addressed at the end of each title, with explicit, respectful separation between the wild spaces of animals and our own spaces. VERDICT An excellent series for animal -lovers that explores the biological and sociological aspects of how humans and animals exist in the world.--Lisa Bosarge, Enoch Pratt Free Library, MD "School Library Journal"
