(4) K-3 Zoom In on Rain Forest Animals series. These basic introductions to rainforest mammals offer cursory facts about appearance, habitat, food, and life cycle. Simple (if choppy) texts for emergent readers are adequately reflected in the accompanying photos. Each book's appendix includes comparisons of average weight, length, or height, some of which won't mean much to kids (e.g., at one hundred pounds, "a chimpanzee weighs as much as a toilet"). Glos., ind. Review covers these Zoom In on Rain Forest Animals titles: Chimpanzees, Jaguars, and Orangutans.
