Summary: THANKS FOR THE REALITY
Comment: THIS IS A WONDERFUL BOOK. IT HAS PROVEN TO BE SUITABLE FOR CHILDREN AND ADULTS. CHILDREN GET BORED SKIMMING THE PRETTY SIDE OF LIFE OVER AND OVER BECAUSE ADULTS DON'T HAVE THE PATIENCE AND ANSWERS IT TAKES TO BE HONEST. CHILDREN KNOW THAT THERE IS MORE TO LIFE THAN WHAT THEY ARE SHOWN. KANGAROOS ARE SOME OF THE MOST COMPLEX ANIMALS IN THE WORLD (POUCHES AND HOPPING ARE THE LEAST OF IT). THIS BOOK SHOWS THAT IN A WAY THAT IS NOT "GROSS"; BUT, REAL, HONEST AND EDUCATIONAL.

Rating: 4
Summary: Purposfully explicit
Comment: The beauty of this series is the slightly gruesome nature of the photographs. While adults may wrinkle their noses and say "Ick," elementary school children find them very appealing. Kids especially enjoy knowing their elders are "grossed out" by the pictures!

Summary: Outside and Inside Kangaroos
Comment: Although this book contains incredible photographs I am reviewing it unfavorably based on the age range (4-8). I bought it to use in a Kindergarten classroom. The pictures are too explicit revealing internal organs, stomach and undigested food, the womb, leg muscles and tendons. Luckily, I looked at it before putting it in the classroom. I feel that the students would have been frightened, not only by the graphic nature of the pictures but also by wondering how the pictures were taken. Akin to a dissection book. Definitely for older children and even then, for those not squeamish.
