Book Review: The Life Cycle of an Owl"Each title describes an adult's key physical characteristics (major body parts are labeled in the accompanying photo); the quest for a mate; egg production; hatching of young; and stages from crab larva or owl chick to adult. "Crab" also describes the crustacean's feeding habits, molting, natural enemies, and defense mechanisms, while "Owl" provides more detail on the development of the chicks... Thomson's titles, with their easily accessible format, and clear texts and photographs, will appeal to both browsers and report writers."
