Horn Book (Fri Aug 01 00:00:00 CDT 2014)

These solid leveled readers about the title animals feature simple, clear sentences; attractive, well-labeled photographs; and strong organization. The layouts are energetic, and new readers will especially appreciate the inclusion of jokes. A picture puzzle concludes Koalas, and a "Stump Your Parents" quiz wraps up Manatees; both include a table of contents and a photo glossary.
