Wolverine is a beautifully illustrated book describing this rarely seen animal. I liked that the book was written by someone who lives in the Arctic, which is part of the wolverine’s natural habitat.
The book describes lots of different aspects of wolverines, such as what they look like, their hunting tactics, and how their families work. The pictures helped me imagine what the text describes. My favourite picture is the one of the mother wolverine with her baby kits.
The book says it is for the youngest of readers, and the information is gives is suited to that age range. As I’m older, the one thing I would change would be to have more text detail in each section. I found the facts really interesting, and it left me wanting to know more.

Wolverines was not the book for me. It is a non-fiction book about wolverines. Although the illustrations were good, it was very short and failed to capture my attention throughout the entire book.

I didn’t enjoy reading this book. It does have facts about wolverines but it’s just boring and didn’t spark my interest. I bet it didn’t even take me ten minutes to read. It was so short. The illustrations were nice though. I wouldn’t read this again. I rate this a 1.5/5.
Wolverine isn’t the type of book I would usually pick out to read, I would usually pick out a book that is a chapter book. This book reminded me of the last book I picked out which was Beavers. They were alike in many ways. I liked reading this book. It was a really short book. I’m not sure if I would get this book out again. I would recommend this book to someone who enjoys reading about animals or who would like to know more about them. I rate this book a 3.5/5.
