Review

This non-fiction book on dolphins is part of the Discover More series from Scholastic. Broken into 13 two-page chapters, this book provides plenty of easy-to-understand information on dolphins. The color photography is outstanding and is integrated with call-outs and sidebars that present dolphin facts in an interesting manner that will keep young readers engaged.

Printed on heavy card stock, this book will hold up well with young readers. Glossary and index are included along with a bonus offer which is a free digital companion book on dolphin rescue tales. This bonus is also noted on the front cover.

A recommended purchase for both school and public libraries. A perfect book for early readers doing their first book report.

Overall Book Score: excellent
