K-3Big Buddy Books: Arctic Animals series.
These brief volumes give basic but solid overviews of the spotlighted Arctic animals, covering territory, anatomy, cold-adaptive features, diet, reproduction, and threats to survival. Large stock photos (of varying quality, some poorly laid out) give close-up views of the animals in their frosty habitats. Some of the serviceable text is repeated across the series; photo captions and sidebars provide additional facts. Glos., ind. Review covers these Big Buddy Books: Arctic Animals books: Arctic Foxes, Beluga Whales, and Polar Bears.
