School Library Journal
“Three titles designed to introduce emergent readers to these animals. Each spread features one to two large-type sentences that face a full-page photo. Facts are basic: “Coyotes have bushy tails with black tips”; “A fox is a type of wild dog”; “Deer have big eyes. They see at night as well as they do during the day.” Some pages also include inset photos. As the coyote’s diet is described, the large photograph of a hunting coyote is offset with small circle-shaped pictures of the berries, grass, and insects it eats. Overall, these books are serviceable introductions for very early readers.”
