(4) K-3 Wild World of Animals series. Oversize up-close photos effectively convey these reptiles' creepy but fascinating natures. Straightforward, basic facts are provided about the animals' habitats, attributes, and relationship to humans. An occasional mismatched informational tidbit is oddly placed ("Crocodiles can run surprisingly fast" is accompanied by a photo of a lolling beast), but the books' clean design makes the texts easy to follow. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Wild World of Animals titles: Crocodiles and Snakes.
