Gorillas (Seedlings)

Gr 1-3 With a huge font size, a simple yet appealing layout, and large images, these continuing books in this attractive series can't miss. SLJ said of previous series titles that they "[do] a good job of covering the basics" and "[offer] a solid opportunity to start introducing nonfiction features." Attractive, clear photos are action packed, informative, and, at times, adorable (expect baby animals galore!), and the text, while simple, is appropriate to young audiences, discussing these animals' body parts, life cycles, and eating habits. Rudimentary but clear diagrams are a nice plus.
