ReviewedTwo predators challenge each other for dominance in North America. Who will come out on top? Mountain lions and coyotes face off in this high-interest title. Reluctant readers will learn basic information about mountain lions and coyotes, as well as how these animals do battle. Action-packed images highlight the strengths of these animals, while animal profiles and other features show off their battle tools. Let the fight begin!
'Highly engaging and fast-paced with close-up color photographs on each page, this series provides interesting facts about wild animals and compares them to a competitor. Two of the books feature animals whose range would never overlap and the battle photograph must be computer generated. Helpful nonfiction text features like a diagram showing animal size, habitat, and range, a secret weapons page highlighting the animal’s adaptations, and a learn more page with book recommendations and a Factsurfer web link make this series stand out. The series also has typical text features like bold printed words defined in a glossary, a table of contents and an index. The text features and highly engaging nature of this series would make it useful for elementary school wild animal reports and reluctant readers who enjoy wild animal information. This series would be popular in elementary schools, and possibly for reluctant readers in middle school.', Sarah Idman, School Librarian, Harwich Elementary School
