Críticas

"This easy-to-read and informative text highlights the differences between two animals that may look alike but are actually unique in terms of feeding, habitat, growth, and predatory behavior. Dissimilarities in appearance are also covered. Close-up photographs, large type, and brightly colored pages along with descriptive sidebars and 'Fun Facts' enhance accessibility for young readers." --The Horn Book Guide

"Concise descriptions of similarities and differences among six pairs of look-alikes. Readers learn that both frogs and toads have bulging eyes, but a toad's skin is rougher and drier than a frog's; dolphins have pointed beaks while porpoises' are smaller and curved; cheetahs and leopards can look identical at first glance; and butterflies are generally more colorful than moths. Differences in food gathering, physique, habitats, etc., are made clear. Colorful photographs abound. A 'Who Am I?' quiz and 'Fun Facts' page are included in each volume. Audiences will come away with the ability to distinguish these seemingly twinlike twosomes. Fun, eye-opening titles for browsing and classroom research." --School Library Journal, Series Made Simple
