This clever compare-and-contrast approach makes differences between often-confused creatures easy to understand and remember. For each spread, large-print text introduces a point of comparison ("Long or Short Legs?" "Freshwater or Salt Water?" "Smooth or Scaly Skin?"); answers appear alongside vibrant captioned photos of the animals. Helpful color-coded summaries and "What a Surprise!" facts are appended. Reading list, websites.
