Booklist - 05/01/2019 Determined furry faces gaze from the colorful, Lisa Frank–esque covers of these level-2 readers in the Animals of the Arctic series (6 titles)—a combination that will draw kids like magnets. Each book profiles a different creature that makes its home in the frozen north, introducing its diet and the key physical and behavioral attributes that allow it to survive in such a harsh environment. The volumes employ bright, photo-rich layouts and consistent text and illustrative features, including a range map and stats graphic depicting the animal’s conservation status and life span. The adorable subject of Arctic Foxes trots through tundra and captures prey with keen hearing and arcing pounces. Bolded vocabulary words (defined in a glossary) and moderate text repetition offer support to emergent readers, as do magnified, labeled photos. A simple but strong science series for beginning readers. - Copyright 2019 Booklist.
