Mammals: A Compare and Contrast Book
Spotting wildlife is a thrill, but it’s not easy. When Cole comes to visit his
friend Helena, he can’t wait to see all the wildlife the forest has to offer—
and is disappointed when all he sees are a few birds. Together the kids
set out on a hike and encounter plenty of animal signs along the way.
Through observation and her knowledge of animal behavior, Helena helps
Cole learn what each of the signs means: something had been there;
something had done that. (Fiction, 500L, ages 4-8)
All mammals share certain characteristics that set them apart from animal
classes. But some mammals live on land and other mammals spend their
lives in water—each is adapted to its environment. Land mammals breathe
oxygen through nostrils but some marine mammals breathe through
blowholes. Compare and contrast mammals that live on land to those that
live in the water. (Nonfiction, 610L, ages 4-8)

Midnight Madness at the Zoo
By Sherryn Craig
Illustrated by Karen Jones
Gram Hatter and Kat set off on an adventure. Gram quickly folds up a
pirate hat and places it on Kat’s head and they begin their mission to help
clean up the city park. Volunteering turns into a treasure hunt as Kat finds
pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and even a dollar. With each discovery
Kat gets a new hat and Gram Hatter teaches Kat how to count her coins
as they pick up litter at the park. When Kat adds up her money, there’s
enough for ice cream. Or should she donate the money to support the
park instead? (Fiction, 550L, ages 4-8)

The bustle of the crowd is waning and the zoo is quieting for the night. The
polar bear picks up the ball and dribbles onto the court; the nightly game
begins. A frog jumps up to play one-on-one and then a penguin waddles in to
join the team. Count along as the game grows with the addition of each new
animal and the field of players builds to ten. Three zebras serve as referees
and keep the clock, because this game must be over before the zookeeper
makes her rounds. (Fiction, 510L, ages 4-8)

From slowing wildfires to planting seeds, one animal is the true superhero
that keeps the African savanna in balance. Elephants dig to find salt that
other animal lick, their deep footprints collect water for small creatures
to drink, and they eat young trees to keep the forest from overtaking
the grasslands. In every season, the elephants are there to protect the
savanna and its residents – but what would happen if the elephants were
only “once upon a time”? Read along to discover the important role this
keystone species plays in the savanna and explore what would happen if the
elephants vanished. (Nonfiction, 730L, ages 4-8)
Key words: Africa, grassland, habitat/animal interaction, keystone species
In this adaptation of The Emperor’s New Clothes, Mayor Peacock declares
he will hire a tornado tamer to protect the town. After a long search, Travis
arrives to fill the position and this weasel has a plan. He will build a very
special, transparent cover to protect the town. Travis’ magical cover is so
transparent that only those smart enough and special enough can even see
it. Mouse is doubtful, but his questions are brushed off. Months later, the
cover has been hung and Travis has been paid a hefty sum, but a tornado
is in the distance and the town is in its path. Will the magic cover protect the
town? (Fiction, 440L, ages 4-8)

By Kevin Kurtz
Sharks and dolphins both have torpedo-shaped bodies with fins on their
backs. They slice through the water to grab their prey with sharp teeth. But
despite their similarities, sharks and dolphins belong to different animal
classes: one is a fish and gets oxygen from the water and the other is a
mammal and gets oxygen from the air. Marine educator Kevin Kurtz guides
early readers to compare and contrast these ocean predators through
stunning photographs and simple, nonfiction text. (Nonfiction, 410L, ages 4-8)

prey, senses, physical adaptations, habitat/animal interaction

Sharks and Dolphins: A Compare and Contrast Book
Magnetic Magic
Alexa and the other children at her escuela in Costa Rica have a special
project: they are raising American Crocodiles. She names her croc Jefe,
which means “boss,” because he seems to be in charge of all the other
babies. Alexa brings him chicken and frogs to eat, and writes about his
progress in her diary. Soon, her little hatchling is as big as a loaf of bread. He
has grown into a juvenile and it is time for Alexa to say goodbye and for Jefe
to return to the wild. (Fiction, ages 4-8)
Dena loves using magnets to perform magic tricks for the kids at the pool.
When Enrique arrives in town, he doesn’t like that Dena is fooling the others.

should be! What could cause her compass to lead her off course? When she
discovers the answer, will Dena keep fooling the other kids with magic tricks
or will she help them learn about magnetism? (Fiction, ages 4-8)

As the sun begins to set, arctic animals scurry to prepare for six months
of darkness and cold. Tuktuk the collared lemming is almost ready for the
long winter night—all he needs is warm fur to line his nest. When one furry
kamik (boot) slips off an Inuit driver’s sled, Tuktuk is in luck! But as he drags
it home, Putak the polar bear, Aput the arctic fox, and Masak the caribou
eye this little lemming’s prize and want it for their own. Can Tuktuk outwit the
other animals and convince them that one furry kamik is no good for anyone
bigger than a lemming? (Fiction, ages 4-8)
