Booklist - 02/01/2023 Two new creatures join the well-illustrated Young Zoologist series (2 new titles), which guides readers through the lives and notable features of the spotlighted animals. Each work begins with a short letter from the author (a scholar on the animal in question); a “Fact File” that introduces the animal through scientific details including its habitat, diet, and life span; and a two-page spread sporting a labeled close-up of the animal and key information about it. A “Before You Get Started” spread prepares the young zoologist (aka the reader) for their upcoming adventure in the field, laying out tools necessary for investigating the animal. The bright, semi-realistic artwork could hold these titles up on its own, but the easily digestible facts regarding life cycle, behavior, and conservation make the volumes well rounded. Honey Bee focuses on this popular pollinator, detailing how these insects keep the plants of the world producing, make honey, and expand their hives as well as providing tips on keeping the world bee friendly. Each work is pragmatic in addressing the challenges these creatures face while helping aspiring zoologists learn ways to protect animals and their environments. - Copyright 2023 Booklist.
