Tracosas, L.J. Creature Files: Predators PICTURE BOOK Becker
and Mayer! (Quarto), 2017. $15. Content: G.
Twenty different predators are
highlighted in this informational read. The
first few pages explain how the planet has many different animal predators and
the ways they use their claws to hunt prey.
Then each page spread is a different animal with a picture of their
location on the map, their size, a paragraph explaining more about the animal
and a paragraph explaining their claws. Some
of the animals include big cats, birds, bears, alligators and komodo dragons.
I enjoyed the facts in this book and the
bright colorful photographs of the animals and their claws. The information was organized in an easy to
find format with highlights that make the animals interesting. My only issue with this book is that it comes
with a set of fake claws on a necklace which gives it a thick and bulky front
cover, so I’m not sure if the binding would hold up with multiple use. Great facts and pictures, but the cover makes
it lose it’s appeal for libraries.
