Enhanced descriptions from Syndetics:
"These stories will enchant readers and empower them to devour the more text-heavy "grown up" style of the book, while still keeping the story easily digestible for a hesitant reader. Series Overview- Perfect for kids aging out of early readers, these books are written in simple prose appropriate for those who have just started reading on their own. Each chapter book will feature plot-driven true stories packed with humorous and high adventure tales. Unlike the competition, they are in full color, with gorgeous photographs opening every chapter. Weird-but-true facts about the animals are sprinkled throughout the text, adding visual interest and the fast facts kids adore."
Includes bibliographical references (p. 111) and index.
