Enslow 2010 32p 22.60 I Like Reading About Animals(Enslow)
978-0-7660-3328-3 elem E-BN
A fun and interesting look at how and why animals communicate with each other and how the communication benefits them. Loaded with interesting and appropriate photographs. The focus of this book is both animal communication and cooperation. The author begins by telling the reader that animals have ways to tell each other what they want. “They make sounds. They move in special ways. They touch each other.”(5) She then proceeds to supply examples on how this communication takes place within different species.
As with other titles in the series the photographs draw in the reader. The information, with its specific focus, transmits the intended facts. The selection of animal species is unusual and include birds, lizards, mammals, and insects.
This colorful book doesn’t overwhelm its audience with too much information. Supplemental materials include references to additional sources of information and a very nice index.
Spadaro, Trish
