Series Review: How Are
They Different?
"Children who
have ever wondered how to differentiate between similar species should start
with this series. Each title begins with an explanation of scientific
classification, which can be a bit technical. (A chart would have been helpful.)
Through describing the anatomy, diet, habitat, and life cycle of each species,
the texts show how they are alike and not. A handy table midway through every
volume makes comparison between creatures easy. The glossaries define most
unfamiliar terms."
