What Is a Mammal?

32 pp. January, 1998 | Library ISBN 0-86505-878-4 | Paper ISBN 0-86505-890-3
(4) 4-6 Science of Living Things series. The best-known groups of mammals, such as primates and bats, are described, but so are more unusual groups, including monotremes (the platypus) and edentates (the sloth). The result is a well-rounded introduction, illustrated with color photographs and drawings. The unattractive design is a drawback, and a little more in-depth discussion would have added to the book's usefulness. Glos., ind.
