(4) K-3 Comparing Animal Traits series. Each presentation covers appearance, habitat, skills, and traits for its subject while also comparing and contrasting the focal animal with other birds by text, photos, and charts. Some comparisons are natural, some surprisingly revealing; however, others--such as ruby-throated hummingbirds and Adélie penguins--feel random, without relevant comparative features. There are four other spring 2016 books in this series. Reading list, websites. Bib., glos., ind. Review covers these Comparing Animal Traits titles: Ruby-Throated Hummingbirds, Snowy Owls, Ostriches, and Toco Toucans.
