Series Review: The World's Smartest AnimalsThis engaging series takes an unusual approach by selecting animal subjects based on their intelligence. . .the oversized books are visually appealing; with main ideas and vocabulary terms offset in bold, and boxed fact and trivia inserts.Compelling, full-color captioned photos align closely with the text. The books will appeal to students across all elementary grades, browsers and researchers alike.Library Media ConnectionSeries Review: The World's Smartest AnimalsGreat seriesfull of interesting information and large color photos of natural habitat.Deborah Jones, Glenn Harmon ElementaryBook Review: DolphinsThe layout of this book is its strength. Beautiful pictures against an ocean blue background enhance the text. Yellow and light blue text boxes explain and clarify the photos' purpose. Dolphin skills boxes provide interesting facts that are related to the text of the page and keep the interest of the reader.Dyann Campbell, School Librarian, Alice Ponder Elementary
