[Duane]

This is a great book that explains what alien species are in our animal kingdom here on Earth. With great pictures and illustrations, readers will learn how exotic species get introduced into area they were never meant to be, how they creat havoc for native species, and if there is anything that can be done to remedy the problem. A great book for preteen readers.

This is a wonderful book that discusses species that have become invasive to their current environments. The photos and graphics are pleasing and the writing is interesting. This is a great book for older children who love to learn about animals and science.
