Review :
Cobras is one of a set of six books about snakes by Capstone Press. This set of topical, leveled, informational reading selections deals with a topic that often fascinates reluctant readers. Incredible photography and fun facts about cobras add to the book's appeal. Vocabulary words are in bold type and are defined both at the bottom of the page on which they appear as well as in the glossary. Also included is a table of contents, a basic index, a list of suggested books for further reading, and an internet search engine for age-appropriate sites through www.facthound.com. Tested sites were current. The large print will appeal to early readers. Although advertised as having a reading level of 1 to 2, a random test of passages (beginning, middle, and end) showed a reading level of 3 according to the Flesh-Kincaid Grade scale. Advertised interest level is 1 to 3; however, upper-elementary students will also enjoy this concisely written book-- "National Science Teachers Association" Snakes are quick, slithery and send shivers up the spines of many kids and adults, too! No matter your initial reaction to snakes, after you have read a bit about them, you must admit that these unique reptiles are fascinating creatures. This title in the popular "first facts" series gives young readers an "up close and personal" look at the adaptive physiology, behavior, habitats, and life cycle of the cobra, one of the world's most feared species of snake. For example, why does a cobra have a hood? How does a cobra release its venom? Where do cobras live? Kids will enjoy finding out the answers to these and many other questions. The book is nicely designed for either reading cover-to-cover or for reading pages at random. Each two-page spread features a main body of text, a 'fun fact' bubble and a highlighted definition of a key scientific term used in the text, plus a full-color close-up photo of a Cobra in action. At the back of the book, young readers will find a complete glossary, an index, and suggestions on where to look for more information. Of special interest is the FactHound search engine offered by Capstone to help kids find age-appropriate and safe websites on this topic, which can be accessed by entering in the book's ID number on their www.facthound.com site. The book features sturdy library binding and heavy paper stock so it will stand up to repeated readings by students and library patrons.-- "Children's Literature Comprehensive Database"
