BUYING ADVISORY: EL, MS - ESSENTIAL
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
Isabella methodically looks at the consequences of removing wolves from the Yellowstone ecosystem and the benefits to the foodweb once they were reintroduced.
Though text heavy for a picture book, it reads remarkably smoothly and quickly. The arrangement of the text and pacing of the facts works and the supporting illustrations enhance the ability for students to learn from the narrative.
