excerpt: A deer is always on alert for enemies, so it eats quickly. It nips off plants and swallows them almost whole. The food is stored in the deer's large stomach. When the deer is full, it lies down in a hidden spot. Here it can safely rest and digest its food. ![]() The illustrations by Pat Stephens are prominent on the page, with the information placed around it. The book includes a section called "Deer Signs" and a glossary to reinforce new vocabulary. Clearly-defined subject headings in the table of contents and a detailed index make this book a good buy for home or school. Highly recommended. Harriet Zaidman is a teacher-librarian at Niakwa Place School in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
