What’s the Difference
Animals
by Susie Rae
DK, 2022. 80 pages.
Review written 2/3/2023 from a library book.
I just think this book is cool. With DK’s clear photographic style, this book takes 28 pairs of animals that are often confused and shows you the differences between them.
Some examples:
Leopard or Jaguar?
Frog or Toad?
Crocodile or Alligator?
Dolphin or Porpoise?
Seal or Sea Lion?
Falcon or Hawk?
Rabbit or Hare?
It’s all laid out clearly, with photographs, plus fact bars on the side and other similar animals mentioned as well. I thought it was a lot of fun to read through.
My one quibble is that although the animals come from all over the world, many of the more common examples (like seagulls and frogs) used animals from Europe, since, after all, DK is based in England. But that was a minor quibble. Not everything has to be America-centric.
A fun book for everyone who likes animal facts.
