Reviews
Grade 3-5-In this eye-pleasing title, many bright and colorful, captioned illustrations leave room for a brief paragraph of simple text on a variety of two-page topics. From behaviors ("Meeting and greeting," "Finding food") to species ("African hunting dogs," "Mountain dogs"), the book provides snippets of information that may satisfy some readers and pique the curiosity of others. The glossary defines some possibly unfamiliar terms, and the index provides easy access to information (though a number of citations lead only to an illustration). Attractive, approachable (the large font and wide spacing will encourage reluctant readers), and informative to a modest degree, this book is best suited for browsing, though it would certainly serve to plump up a slender bibliography.
