* Reviews *
The books in the Amazing Animal Defenses series would be a good addition to the library of any teacher with special needs students because they present important concepts in a format that will appeal to reluctant readers and special needs students. The books are graphically interesting, and the material is presented in small, easy-to-digest sections.
