Reviews

Scientific concepts such as bioluminescence and regeneration are explained at an appropriately introductory level. Well-chosen images of a seven-legged spider, a fluorescent tree frog, and other eye-catching examples effectively support the text. . . .Several of the topics, such as water bears and deep-sea dragonfish, are not often covered in children's books. Well-conceived presentations about fascinating creatures. Great picks for elementary schoolers.-- "School Library Journal"
