Google e.encyclopedia 'Animal'

Google e.encyclopedia 'Animal', 2005, Editor Sarah Larter is a Dorling Kindersley book, I found at the local public library 590.3EENC. In keeping with other DK books Google e.encyclopedia 'Animal' offers the reader concise information about animals and their habitat together with exciting pictures and informative illustrations.

This book is reader friendly in that it provides a comprehensive, but easy to interpret, colour coded table of contents. However one of the most exciting attributes of this book is that it has its own website address http://www.animal.dke-encyc.com/ created by DK and Google which enables the reader to access additional information online and from any of the 750 links. This additional information may be presented in the form of a video, picture gallery or a 'test your knowledge' activity.
