    at that), dynamically colored photographs of animals in their native habitats.

    BooklistReview ofAmazing Animals

    Riveting, close-up photos will draw young audiences to these introductions.

    The layout is uniformly simple but effective, constructed with a nice balance of main text for the

    report writers, smaller chunks of esoterica for browsers, and killer photos. All in all, upper-echelon

    animal books for middle-grade researchers.

    BooklistReview of Living Wild

    The NBA: A History of Hoops series uses a format similar to the publishers excellent NFL Today

    series, which means plenty of technical, hard-driving game recaps paired with giant-size photos that

    freeze-frame the sweat and glory of pro basketball.
