(4) K-3 Buddy Books: Prehistoric Animals series. Prehistoric mammals are compared to their modern-day counterparts in terms of their physical appearance and eating habits and whether they live solo or in a group. In each book, a child is shown with a fossil (often a tooth) to compare sizes, and each includes a map and a prehistoric timeline. Although explained in the text, terms such as dermal ossicle challenge the second-grade reading level. Glos., ind. [Review covers these Buddy Books: Prehistoric Animals titles: Dire Wolf, Giant Ape, Giant Ground Sloth, Giant Rhino, Saber-toothed Cat, and Woolly Mammoth.]
