(4) K-3 Pull Ahead Books series. Each of the books in this series offers an easy-to-read introduction to a common animal. Close-up color photos illustrate basic information about habitat, physical characteristics, and care of young, though some of the photos are not well matched with the text (e.g., text about porcupines' nocturnal habits is accompanied by pictures of the animals during the day). A habitat map and labeled drawing conclude the book. Glos. [Review covers these Pull Ahead Books titles: Pouncing Bobcats, Diving Dolphins, and Prickly Porcupines.]
