      Gr 4-8-These guides each begin with a discussion of the characteristics of the titular organism, and then tips about how the book's features organize the information. Entries include common and scientific names for the animal or plant, a descriptive paragraph, and hints on how to spot a cassowary or a basking shark based on size, range, and habitat. Text boxes offer fun facts, such as "Scientists consider the gingko tree to be a living fossil." There are also sidebars with additional information, such as how domestic cats and dogs developed over time. Plentiful photos show the difference between male and female animals, or changes in summer and winter coloring. There are books recommended for further reading, and a QR code gives readers access to ABDO's Booklinks website for more online sources. VERDICT A useful resource for classes studying taxonomy and animal classification or for nature enthusiasts.
