Wildlife Worlds Africa

School Library Journal

Gr 3--6--Each title introduces a dozen locations that highlight the variety of plants and animals of the continent. Coverage ranges from national parks such as Yellowstone to ecosystems like the Great Barrier Reef and geographical ranges like the Galápagos Islands. Each spread describes the unique qualities of the habitat in two or three concise paragraphs. Captioned photographs typically present three or four animals per location. With just a sentence or two of text, the animal facts serve more as an introduction to the variety of wildlife rather than full profiles. Plant life and geographical features (waterfalls and islands) are also introduced. A clearly labeled continent map identifies the location of each featured site. Though there is not enough detail on individual animals or the locations for in-depth learning, the set provides an intriguing survey of wildlife from a geographical perspective. VERDICT Consider for larger collections.
