It's a Baby Spiny Anteater!

(4) K-3 SandCastle: Baby Australian Animals series. A clean, inviting design frames the text in this early reader series about Australian baby animals. Group names, special habits and features, diets, and predators are covered (though some explanations are confusing or otherwise unsatisfying). Occasional sidebars support the texts and/or the (mostly) clear photographs. "Vital Statistics" and "Fun Facts" pages are useful for making comparisons among the animals. Glos. Review covers these SandCastle: Baby Australian Animals titles: It's a Baby Kangaroo!, It's a Baby Australian Fur Seal!, It's a Baby Flying Fox!, It's a Baby Spiny Anteater!, and It's a Baby Tasmanian Devil!
