  | Full Text Reviews: Booklist - 06/01/2020 Each level-2 reader in the Animals of the Coral Reef series (6 titles) introduces one of the diverse creatures living in this fascinating ecosystem. In the book’s main section, a typical page features one or two illustrations, usually eye-catching photos, along with a few short lines of text in large type. Words that might be unfamiliar, such as biome, predators, and prey, are defined in the glossary. Besides the excellent illustrations, colorful design elements add to the books’ appeal. While the topics covered will vary, depending on the featured animal, the discussion might include where the animal lives, what it eats, and how it is well adapted to its habitat. Sea Snakes considers how an air-breathing reptile that needs to drink fresh water has adapted to live in warm oceans. An attractive series for the many young readers intrigued by marine animals. - Copyright 2020 Booklist. Loading...
