K-3Amazing Animals series.
Vivid photographs providing up-close views of the daily lives and behavior of the title mammals are the highlights of these slim volumes. Minimal texts touch on habitat, appearance, diet, and offspring, and supply a folk-story answer to a question about each creature (e.g., "How did camels get their humps?" "Why do zebras not have horns?"). Reading list, websites. Ind. Review covers these Amazing Animals titles: Camels, Cougars, Sea Lions, Whales, and Zebras.
