(2) K-3 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. Illustrated by Steve Jenkins. Pfeffer takes readers to the Great Barrier Reef to explain the science of coral reefs and the coral life cycle. In just a few sentences per page, she covers such topics as diurnal and nocturnal inhabitants in addition to symbiotic and predator-prey relationships. Jenkins's tropical-hued cut-paper illustrations alternate between a habitat teeming with life and close-ups of individual specimens. Additional facts are appended.
