Editorial Reviews
Review
Booklist : "Report writers (will) come away much more informed. Each volume in this new series is a well-written, well-organized, thorough look at how a creature hunts, catches, and devours its food, which, as it happens, encompasses a lot of natural history territory. The series format is attractive: slightly enlarged type, clear paragraph headings allow for quick access, and many illustrations. The content is excellent, and kids will come away not only more knowlegeable but also more respectful of the other animals that share our planet."

Library Talk : "Readers who have weak stomachs or who have just finished eating may not appreciate these books...The descriptive text and color photos will hold interest, but students doing reports may have to use additional resources to fill in some details. Teachers might also find the books useful as examples of tightly organized narratives for graphic organization projects. Recommended."
