Trumpeter Swan: The World's Largest Waterbird

24 pp. | Bearport | January, 2013 | Library ISBN 978-1-61772-734-4 $23.93
(4) K-3 Even More SuperSized! series. Opening with a clear comparison--"A trumpeter swan can weigh more than 30 pounds. That is about as much as a three-year-old child"--this accessible book is a good resource, despite some cheesy section titles ("Dipping for Dinner"). Simple text, stock photos, and a map introduce the habitat, diet, life cycle, physical characteristics, and behavior of the swan. Reading list. Glos., ind.
