摘要
摘要
Here--in more than 500 astonishing life-size full-color photos and fascinating text--is the inside story of the beginning of life, from the first glimmerings of growth inside the eggshell to the animal's struggle to be free. No other book shows such a diversity of bird, reptile, insect, fish, and amphibian eggs hatching.

Gr 2-4-Readers can follow the hatching process of a wide variety of eggs in this eye-catching photographic presentation. Introductory pages define an egg, name groups of animals that lay them, and show diagrams of one developing in a hen. Most examples presented are from the bird family, but amphibians, insects, snakes, and even a slug are represented. Some specific animals may be unfamiliar to the young, but the common theme of similarity in the hatching process will be evident to all. A spacious format contains carefully captioned photographs that demonstrate time differences and techniques required by the emerging young. While somewhat repetitious, this approach does show the similarities of offspring in all egg-laying creatures. Christine Back's Chicken & Egg (Silver Burdett, 1991) and Joanna Cole's A Chick Hatches (Morrow, 1976) offer more comprehensive information. Burton's book is one that children and teachers will reach for to further their understanding of the fascinating emergence of new life.-Diane Nunn, Richard E.

出版社周刊评论
The publisher's characteristically crisp, clean design nicely serves this well-thought-out chronicle of eggs and hatching. Birds (among them the penguin, the familiar street pigeon and the more exotic golden pheasant of China) take up the first part of this book, while the latter sections are devoted to such hatchlings as the corn snake, the Kerry slug and a trio of fish. Each spread boasts a series of color photographs, the first of an egg that is either intact or has its ``pip'' (the first visible sign of the hatching process), the remainder showing, in distinct stages, the infant creature pecking, slithering or swimming its way out of its first home. A final view captures the fledgling in youthful glory at, for example, the age of two days, or presents a full-grown adult specimen. Captions, blocks of text and miniature sidebars convey, with remarkable accessibility, a wealth of information, from the given creature's habitat to the length of its incubation period and nesting patterns. Something to crow over. Ages 5-8. (Mar.) (c) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved

Visually fascinating, 'Egg' uses the publisher's traditional format of captioned, color photographic silhouettes and brief text to show twenty-seven animals hatching from eggs. Timed, step-by-step descriptions of actual hatchings are included. Although the majority of animals are birds, the informative volume also discusses reptiles, amphibians, fish, insects, and a slug.

《书目》(Booklist)书评
Ages 5-8. Unlike most books on eggs and hatching, this doesn't focus on the chicken, but takes a look at 27 animals, mainly birds, that come from eggs. Beginning with the definition of an egg, a discussion of which creatures hatch from eggs, and a look at the development of a chicken embryo, ornithologist Burton then follows the step-by-step hatching of such distinctive creatures as the black swan, Aylesbury duck, leopard gecko, and kerry slug. While the captioned text is lucid and straightforward, it is the graphics that excel. Excellent, close-up photographs are combined with delicate line-drawings and a crisp layout to make a handsome and accessible design. Like many Dorling Kindersley books, this will be in demand with both report writers and browsers. A brief index, glossary (common names only), and acknowledgments of the British individuals and organizations that provided the wildlife, eggs, and incubators are appended. ~--Julie Corsaro
