Reviews

NSTA

“As a classroom teacher, I was impressed with many aspects of this book. It’s perfect for research reports because of its beautiful photographs and interesting morsels of information. The graphic design of the contents page, on which the page numbers are in bubbles, is interesting and inviting.”

School Library Journal, Series Made Simple

“These easy readers introduce distinctly different animals (some, such as pigeons, prairie dogs, and bats, are united in their ‘perceived pest’ status) in a fun way.”
