Tilbury House,U.S. Dont Mess with Me
Book SynopsisTrade Review"Striking photographs and informative text introduce venomous ocean-dwellers…fast facts about the 28 different species described in this tempting title…Most spreads include a boxed text headed "How Nature Works," which may describe open scientific questions, settled theories, or applications. Erickson doesn't pander to his readers: He uses appropriate terminology. Martinez's clearly captioned photographs show the creatures in their habitats; there are also diagrams and microscope images. Colorful pages and varied design add interest. Though the text in this entry in an admirable series may be challenging for young readers, the subject has guaranteed kid appeal. (timeline, further resources, glossary)" -- Kirkus Reviews"An eye-catching and pleasingly gross introduction to venomous sea creatures, with extremely helpful back matter." -- Sheri Reda, Wilmette Public Library, IL - School Library Journal"I like that the author explains the difference between poisonous and venomous sea creatures. I also like that they point out that some are invasive species, so you don't want them in your aquarium or released into the sea. I recommend this non-fiction book for classroom libraries, school libraries, and public libraries everywhere." -- Chat with Vera
