(4) K-3 Do You Really Want to Meet...? series. Illustrated by Daniele Fabbri. Written in the second person, these armchair field trips take readers on journeys from the Arctic to the rainforest to track animals in the wild. While cautioning young explorers about various dangers, the texts provide minimal information about habitat, diet, and behaviors. The friendly cartoon illustrations soften the warnings. Appended websites provide more in-depth information. Each book includes a habitat map. Reading list. Glos. Review covers these Do You Really Want to Meet...? titles: Do You Really Want to Meet a Polar Bear?, Do You Really Want to Meet a Monkey?, Do You Really Want to Meet a Platypus?, and Do You Really Want to Meet a Tiger?.
