Grade 2-4-Topical spreads containing one page of text facing a full-color photo examine a different aspect of these creatures' lives. A bold heading indicates the page's subject (e.g., "Jackal Juniors" discusses how jackals raise their young). Most of the basic facts are included in the short texts, but the information is not in-depth. Difficult terms are in bold and defined in the glossary, which makes these books suitable for independent readers. The eye-catching illustrations increase the overall appeal. Annotated lists of relevant Web sites that offer search suggestions and the addresses of a few zoos and museums are included. The small size of these books and the large number of photos make them reader-friendly and they should find a ready audience among browsers and children writing brief reports. Serviceable additions.

Condition: Good. CIA agent John Wells refuses to let a privileged businessman walk away from a crime in this novel of modern suspense from the #1 New York Times-bestselling author. John Wells has just barely managed to stop an operation designed to drive the United States and Iran into war, but the instigator himself disappeared behind an impenetrable war of security. Now it's time for him to pay, and Wells has made it his personal mission. There are plenty of crosscurrents at work, though. The White House doesn't want anybody stirring the pot; his old CIA bosses have their own agendas; other countries are starting to sniff around, sensing something unusual. It is when Russia and China enter the mix, however, that the whole affair is set to combust. With alarming speed, Wells is once again on his own.and the wolves are closing in.
