Insect or Spider?

“This clever com­pare-and-con­trast approach makes dif­fer­ences between often-con­fused crea­tures easy to under­stand and remem­ber.” (The Horn Book Guide)

“What makes this series so out­stand­ing is the excel­lent close-up pho­tog­ra­phy. Read­ers can eas­i­ly see the dif­fer­ences between the ani­mals with­out being bogged down by over­whelm­ing text. These high qual­i­ty books would be a wel­come addi­tion to an ele­men­tary ani­mal sci­ence col­lec­tion. They will be appre­ci­at­ed by ani­mal lovers brows­ing the col­lec­tion and class­room teach­ers pre­sent­ing a begin­ning les­son on ani­mal biol­o­gy. A cre­ative lan­guage arts teacher might even employ these vol­umes in a unit on opposites/antonyms and syn­onyms, draw­ing par­al­lels from the ani­mal world.” (Library Media Con­nec­tion)
