(4) K-3 Gross-Out Defenses series. Each book begins with a predator-versus-prey anecdote describing the featured animal's means of self-protection. Though defenses are the focus, standard animal facts (habitat, diet, young) are also covered. The short sentences of main text, accompanied by large and vibrant photographs, are easy to read; sidebars are a little less accessible to the intended emergent reader audience. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these Gross-Out Defenses titles: Deadly Poison Dart Frogs and Bloody Horned Lizards.
