SERIES REVIEW: The basic life cycle of each featured animal in this nonfiction series is explored via short sentences in large fonts, consisting of interesting details, and paired with engaging color photographs. While focused on the childhood time, around birth to leaving their mother, each title also explores the animal’s overall life cycle. Some titles include a problem facing the species, but not every animal or most problems. Each title includes a short glossary, a few additional facts, and a simple index.
