Series review:
Polar Animals: Life in the Freezer
"Everything about these books is
captivating, from the large, clear, often double-page photographs of each
animal, to the abundant captions and ice-enhanced fact inserts and text boxes on
every page. ... Terms specific to each creature are in bold font and defined
within the text as well as in the glossary. Each title includes a map that
indicates where the creature lives. Though this is a series, each volume has a
unique feel, depending on the creature being described. Children curious about
how animals adapt to and survive in the Arctic will find themselves fascinated
by these books."-Maggie Chase, School Library
