SCIENCE
(4) K-3 Illustrated by K. Dyble Thompson. This book awkwardly pairs bouncing, rhyming poems with informational sidebars on each page. Although the sidebars are interesting, they do not contain enough material to make the book a solid, organized overview of cat characteristics and breeds, and they interrupt the flow of the verse. However, the rough watercolors, featuring dozens of playful and reflective cats, will appeal to animal lovers.
