(4) K-3 Illustrated by Laura Regan. "Staring, rippling, jetting spots . . . five reef squid." Ten spotted animals, including ringed seals, reticulated giraffes, and tundra butterflies, are introduced in this counting book/natural history lesson illustrated with dark artwork. A note at the back explains that the animals are from different biomes, a fact that would have been more useful to know from the start. Information about each animal and biome is appended.
