Fantastic pictures; very little text. The children's librarian says this is one of the most popular books in the library.

Simple text introduces animals with odd characteristics or behaviors, but points out why being odd is good for these critters.
A very easy little reader with fantastic photographs and a good reminder that odd may be even better. I like the vast array of animals included from leafy sea dragons to pangolins. Kids will love the big photos. Hand this to animal lovers just starting out reading, or kids who may need a reminder that odd can be wonderful.

This easy reader points out the strange-looking qualities of different animals and points out why they are good for the animal.
