Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
PreSchool-Grade 3-- The ``Eyewitness'' (Knopf) format is utilized to look at two animal infants. Crisp, clean, full-color photographs on snow-white pages follow the birth and early development (6-8 weeks) of a chick and a rabbit. Informative and effective photos show mothers protecting and feeding their young, conveying the vulnerability of the newborns. The first-person text lets readers know just how and when the simple learning processes unfold. Because of the white backgrounds, the animals are not in their natural settings, and are pristine clean. The last page of each book reviews the photographic record of growth. Watercolor borders soften the artificial tidiness of the page layout. Ronald Fisher's Cottontails (1989) and Jane McCauley's Baby Birds and How They Grow (1983, both National Geographic) are broader in scope with similar photos, but set in nature. --Jacqueline Elsner, Athens Regional Lib . , GA

Grow chick, grow!,
By A Customer
This review is from: See How They Grow: Chick (Paperback)
The see how they grow series is yet another quality series put out by Dorling Kindersley (aka DK). Purchase them all if you can! Both children and adults will enjoy "watching" the chick grow. The last two pages are a pictorial summary of how the chick went from egg to eight week-old rooster.

This review is from: Chick (See How They Grow) (Paperback)
My daughter is learning about chicks in Kindergarten so I picked up this book. Each page has actual pictures of the chicks life from egg to a large chicken size. It was a great learning tool for her. Couldn't ask for more when it comes to this type of subject for a child.
