K-3Scholastic Reader series.
Vivid close-up photos of animals are the real draw in these easy readers. After a brief introduction, each book presents rhymes about the animals. Though some are awkwardly worded, many provide such useful information as what the animals eat and how they use camouflage. Quizzes for kids and "reading together" tips for adults seek to boost comprehension and other early reading skills. Glos. Review covers these Scholastic Reader titles: Farm Animals, Night Creatures, and Polar Animals.
