Animal Detectives
This engaging series explores the very special animals that work to make people's lives safer and more secure including police dogs that work on search and rescue teams or stop drugs from entering our country to beagles and bees that sniff out bedbugs. These books are excellent skill-building resources whether they are shared with a pre-reader or used to challenge an emergent reader. The high-interest topics will encourage budding readers to stretch their abilities and will open the door to a lifetime of books. A picture glossary helps first-time readers build and strengthen their vocabulary and the straightforward text provides interesting information.

Series Review: Animal Detectives"Though formatted for emergent readers-with very simple sentences in large type placed opposite full-page color photos of animals at work-this set offers information that will likely be new even to adults."

Series Review: Animal Detectives
"Although these books contain very simple information, they will pique the interest of the youngest readers who are looking for nonfiction titles they can read independently."
