AWARDS & REVIEWS

Reviews

"[T]his book provides tidbits of organized information that will widen young browsers’ understanding of the subject."

School Library Journal, 01/05/2004

"Animal Groups is an exceptionally well written and illustrated text that explores the advantages, from providing defense against predators to finding mates and rearing offspring, that group living conveys on social species. Particularly interesting are the “text boxes” that ask children to consider themselves members of particular groups and to think about what types of behaviors they would exhibit."
