From School Library Journal:
Gr 2-4-Though armor is the common feature of each animal, these books include more information about the creatures than just facts about body structure. Straightforward, declarative sentences present one fact a time, building information at a level that the target audience can manage. A spread midway through each book offers additional data. The language is occasionally awkward, but it's well supported by mostly vivid photographs. The images highlight key features and most relate directly to the accompanying text. Views of a conch's eyes, an armadillo's tongue, and the blood on a fighting rhino's horn are particularly strong examples. The lack of range maps and the inconsistency of the indexes are minor drawbacks. Strong visuals and the inclusion of some less commonly covered animals, such as king crabs and conches, make this set worth considering. α(c) Copyright 2013. Library Journal.
