A Platypus, Probably by Sneed B. Collard III illustrated by Andrew Plant*

Out of the platypus books we read, this one contains the most information.
I like how the text will appeal to a wide range of ages.  The bigger font text is more poetic in form and has simpler facts for younger children.  On most of the pages, the author provides additional facts about the topic in smaller font which will appeal to older readers.
*Highly recommend.
Points to discuss: old earth view (million years), mating rituals are explained
