Title: A Platypus, Probably
Author; Sneed B. Collard III

Summary: Throughout the book readers learn about one of Australia's most popular creatures - the platypus. Sidebars give nonfiction information about platypus facts.
What I use this book for in Writer's Workshop;
1. Author Structure: Demonstrates how sidebar notes give the reader nonfiction information about the topic - in this case, the platypus (see picture below).
2. Recurring Line/Circle Story: Book begins and end with the same line "A platypus, probably".
