Karen Hartley is a Heinemann-Raintree author.
The authors a question-and-answer format to explain what these segmented invertebrates are, how they are born, what they eat (and who eats them), how they move, where and how long they live, what they do, and what makes them special. The text is brief but informative, employing simple sentences and bold type for specialized vocabulary, which is explained in an appended glossary. Most terminology is precise, with the exception of feelers for antennae. Striking, clear color photos (many of them captioned) appearing on nearly every page, help clarify the text. The index, table of contents, and glossary will be a boon to teachers who are introducing their students to the principles of research and organization. Other series titles introduce bees, snails, and worms. Kay Weisman
