Gr 2-5 This high-interest series combines attention-grabbing information with a well-organized format. Some of natures most unusual patterns, defenses, and mutations are explored, and the books have spectacular color photography and eye-popping facts that will appeal to fans of the Guinness World Records series. Each title includes an up-close investigation, of, for example, the causes of albinism and unusual manifestations of the condition, and concludes with a summary placing the topic in the wider context of nature. Albino Animals is of particular interest because of its unusual subject matter. These books are excellent for reports, although it is a shame that there are no further-reading lists, considering the interest they will no doubt generate.
