Gr. 1-3. In this Step into Reading title, Redmond hooks new readers from the first words: "The giant squid is a creature of mystery. Few people have ever seen this monster of the deep. No one has seen it alive and healthy in its home." With short sentences and basic words appropriate to new readers, Redmond goes on to separate legend from truth, including plenty of information about squid physical characteristics and behavior. Final pages address scientists' attempts to learn more. Illustrated with photographs of squid up close and paintings that imagine the wild lore about this elusive creature. An excellent choice to introduce early elementary students to nonfiction titles. Gillian Engberg
