(4) K-3 Illustrated by Cathy Morrison. "Nature is all around us, even in the city." This illuminating book invites readers to explore an urban environment with dog Scooter, who encounters bats under a bridge, starlings by a dumpster, etc. A rather awkward narrative gimmick prompts readers to spot what Scooter misses in the slick digital art (e.g., "He doesn't see the tracks... What he does see...). Extensive supplemental information appended.
