DISBELIEF AND SHOCK
— School Library Journal
Definitely living up to their series title, these dense
gatherings of bizarre facts, actions, & sometimes disturbing
color photographs will prompt a range of varied but intense
responses, even from hardened or pre-warned browsers.
• From a gallery of the exotic in Eating Habits to the
deceptively titled Fun Animals, which features views of
veterinary surgery, two-faced creatures, & a heron chowing
down on a baby bunny, this set is not for the squeamish.

When you pull a Ripley’s title from the shelf, you know what
you’re going to get. And in this entry in the Ripley’s Believe It or
Not! Disbelief and Shock series, that’s not a bad thing.
•Wide-eyed (and occasionally grossed-out) browsers will
wander the brightly designed spreads and constant attention-
grabbing photos until they find something that catches their
particular interest.
• Although factoid snippets are the name of the game, there’s
actually plenty of real information here, often supplemented
with stat and fact boxes.
