(4) 4-6 Endangered Animals and Habitats series. This encyclopedic treatment, illustrated with average-quality black-and-white photos, describes the characteristics and habits of wild cheetahs, with heavy emphasis on their endangered status, the difficulty of breeding them in captivity, and conservation efforts in Namibia and Tanzania. The text is poorly organized, but the information is engaging. A list of organizations is appended. Bib., ind.

(4) YA Endangered Animals and Habitats series. These calls to action achieve an artful balance: general information about the subjects is peppered with provocative sidebars ("Gorilla Humor," "Is the Giant Panda a Bear?"); gruesome images reinforcing a point about an animal's mistreatment are often tempered with a relevant cartoon. Unfortunately, the black-and-white photos are sometimes blurry and dark. Bib., glos., ind.
