About this item

The Atlas of the World's Most Dangerous Animals: Mapping Nature's Born Killers

Lists the dangerous animals of the world by continent, providing key facts about their lifespan, diet, physical characteristics, habitats, and why each animal is considered dangerous. This volume presenta close-up views of some of the world’s dangerous animals. It contains 50 four-page entries arranged according to location (six continents plus the oceans) and offering vivid visual presentation. Entries provide readers with an overview of each animal, including what makes it so “dangerous.” All entries contain a sidebar of “Key Facts” and a map showing where each animal can be found in the wild. Each geographic section is prefaced with a short introduction about the area and the animals that can be found there. Although the entries are visually appealing and contain some nice introductory material, the volume is limited by a lack of in-depth content and further-reading suggestions. Also, there is no explanation of why the particular animals were selected. The illustrations and easy-to-read style make this suitable for young adults, but libraries may want to seek out other titles for students who need more than just an overview. Grades 6-10. --Asia Gross
