Series Review: Open SeasonPhotographs are placed in a pleasing pattern across the pages, on orange and green camouflaged backgrounds. Recognizing the controversial nature of hunting, the author discusses how, in the past, some animal populations were over-hunted to the point of extinction and outlines some measures taken today to prevent that problem. Worthy updates.School Library JournalBook Review: Upland HuntingThis book was very respectful of hunting and written in such a away that students will learn safety and laws. The photos are colorful and students will love the format. Often guns are associated with only crime and this is a way for students to see that by obeying laws and keeping safe hunting can be a rewarding sport. I would not hesitate to have this book in my library; I would like to have all the books in this series. For some students this may be the only time that hunting is presented as an acceptable sport.Tammy Nichols, Adams Elementary, Cleburne, TX
