(3) 4-6 Illustrated by Katie Scott. Grouping animals according to where they appear on the evolutionary tree of animal life, this compendium describes the common characteristics of each group such as frogs, penguins, or marsupials. The science-based text draws connections for readers on how species evolved, and the eye-catching digitally colored pen-and-ink illustrations, set against an ecru background, lend the beautifully designed oversize book an Audubon-esque, field-journal feel.
