Series Review: Creatures of the NightGonzales features animals that readers might be familiar with but rarely get a chance to see. Basic details are complemented by eclectic trivia, such as the fact that bats sleep hanging upside down and that only male crickets chirp. Each volume concludes with a defense of the animal (for they are not all lovable) and why it is vital to humans. The layout is attractive, with easy-to-read text and eye-catching photographyKara Schaff Dean, Walpole Public Library, MA, School Library JournalRL
