Animal Giants

64 pp. | Kingfisher | June, 2004 | Trade ISBN 0-7534-5770-9 $$11.95
(4) 4-6 Kingfisher Knowledge series. A concise, fact-filled text introduces extra-large animals, ranging from extinct dinosaur species to modern-day mammals, birds, and insects. The clear color photos are appealing, although the warning that most of these animals are "extremely dangerous" and shouldn't be approached seems at odds with some of the photos, as of a "friendly wrestling match" between a Kodiak bear and a human. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind.
