PreS-Gr 1—A very simple introduction to some of the more common backyard animals found in North America. Each book opens with four images of the topic creature's body parts and their names (wing, teeth, foot) and an invitation for readers to keep an eye out for them as they continue through the book. Full-page photographs are accompanied by two or three simple sentences explaining some of the main characteristics of each animal. The text includes questions, exclamations, and interjections to keep little ones engaged. At the end of each book readers are asked if they spotted the images and words suggested at the beginning. And, most important, the translation is spot-on.
VERDICT A wonderful introductory series for little ones interested in local critters.
