(4) K-3 Big Buddy Books: African Animals series. Murray provides thorough introductions to four popular African species. Information includes inhabited territory on the continent, social patterns, and physical stats; sporadic "uncovered" sidebars add interesting facts. Some content on Africa is repeated in all four volumes. Though the quality of photographs is mixed, graphic layouts and straightforward text make this series a suitable choice for animal lovers. Glos., ind. Review covers these Big Buddy Books: African Animals titles: Cheetahs, Elephants, Giraffes, and Hippopotamuses.
