What's in the Meadow?

32 pp. | Houghton | August, 2000 | Trade ISBN 0-618-01512-4 $$4.95
(4) K-3 These small, square books offer brief descriptions of ten animals that make their home in a meadow (e.g., meadowlark, spittlebug, mole) or tide pool (e.g., periwinkles, sea anemone, herring gull). The listless texts string together a few facts about diet, behavior, and size. Each paragraph-long profile is paired with a softly realistic watercolor and pencil drawing. Ultimately, these packages are more attractive than instructional.
