Editorial Reviews
Review
Booklist : "Report writers (will) come away much more informed. Each volume in this new series is a well-written, well-organized, thorough look at how a creature hunts, catches, and devours its food, which, as it happens, encompasses a lot of natural history territory. The series format is attractive: slightly enlarged type, clear paragraph headings allow for quick access, and many illustrations. The content is excellent, and kids will come away not only more knowlegeable but also more respectful of the other animals that share our planet."
-- Booklist (October 2001)
School Library Journal : "These series titles offer solid information."
-- School Library Journal (June 2002)
School Library Journal : "The books could be supplemental titles for general reports or useful additions for pleasure reading by kids who enjoy nature shows and books."
-- School Library Journal (June 2002)
Library Talk : "The descriptive text and color photos will hold interest."
-- Library Talk (March-April 2002)
Library Talk : "Teachers might also find the books useful as examples of tightly organized narratives for graphic organization projects. Recommended."
-- Library Talk (March-April 2002)

Book Description
The razor-sharp teeth and veracious appetite of the piranha is legendary. But the piranha is not simply a ruthless killer. Piranhas fill an important niche in the Amazon eco-system.
