School Library Journal - 02/01/2017 K-Gr 3—An exploration of the various ways different creatures interact with those within their species group. Children who are in the process of honing their social skills will appreciate the examples of young animals playing and learning together. Elephants and Gorillas feature somber moments, with conversations on how the two groups grieve deceased members of their herd or troop; photos of dead elephants and gorillas accompany these discussions, but the images are not graphic. There is one error in Lions: lions can't purr. Also, the small illustrated map in Gorillas provides little more than a rough estimate of the areas gorillas inhabit. Absorbing fare for animal lovers. - Copyright 2017 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
