(3) K-3 Dial Easy-to-Read series. Illustrated by Anna DiVito. These well-designed, informative books entice early readers with short, direct sentences and attractive color photos and illustrations. The brisk question-and-answer format provides nourishing fodder for young readers while piquing interest intelligently: why horses wear shoes, why hamsters have cheek pouches, how rabbit leg structure determines patterns of movement. [Review covers these Dial Easy-to-Read titles: Why Do Horses Neigh? and Why Do Rabbits Hop?.]
