(4) 4-6 Checkerboard Animal Library: Animal Icons series. Color photographs combine with easy-to-read but choppy texts to introduce these animals. Each book traces the animal's rise to "iconic" status by providing historical context and cultural significance along with information about physical characteristics, habitat, behavior, and protection efforts. Sidebars and maps impart additional information (including a much-needed definition of icon). Glos., ind. Review covers these Animal Icons titles: Armadillos, Buffaloes, and Coyotes.
