(4) 4-6 Checkerboard Animal Library: Nocturnal Animals series. Report writers won't be let down by these otherwise bland offerings. Each book offers information about the titular species's habitat, habits, care of young, and threats to survival. The books all include a map and the same diagram showing how animals see in the dark. Design elements seem intended to make the subjects spooky, even when stock photos show humans embracing the animals. Glos., ind. Review covers these Checkerboard Animal Library: Nocturnal Animals titles: Aye-Ayes, Fennec Foxes, Kinkajous, Naked Mole Rats, Tarsiers, and Wombats.
