Children's ✦ Penny’s Take
Prickly Animals

68/100

Jump!'s Back Off! series is a reliable library staple and the porcupine quill infographic is a nice touch above the usual photo-plus-caption formula. At 24 pages this is strictly introductory, and the series format brings consistency at the cost of any creative spark. A dependable classroom purchase, but nothing that rises above the competent average of its category.
