Brief Summary: This is an informational book about Platypuses. The author takes you through every detail about Platypuses including the following: their living environment, how they hunt, their physical characteristics, and how platypuses compare to many other animals.

Evaluation: This book is very colorful and can attract the attention of young children. However, children, especially young readers might need help reading some of the scientific words and interpreting the units of measurement that the book describes Platypuses with and describes how Platypuses compare to other animals with. It was definitely very informative and if you love to learn about Platypuses like I do this is the book for you!

Rating: 4 out of 5 Platypuses
