Who doesn’t want to learn about large animals? This reviewer read four of the eight books in this series featuring large, amazing, and rather unusual animals. Each animal is presented via many large color photographs, which are accompanied by a couple sentences providing a few details. Useful to introduce and begin learning about an animal that might be unfamiliar to readers.
