Also, both the cover model and the animal now seem to have a different pose. Whether this is still the same cover model from the previous version, still remains to be seen. <\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">For #2, the most notable change is with the background. This is a good improvement, in my opinion, as everything blends a bit better with the DNA fingerprint\/fur combo.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">I have no idea which one is currently the <em>final<\/em> version of either book, and we likely won&#8217;t know this until we start seeing more advertisements from Scholastic promoting these books. The books are still 6 months away, so there is still plenty of wiggle room left if Scholastic wants to make any more future alterations. We&#8217;ll keep you posted if we find any more.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\"><strong>UPDATE:<\/strong> A quick look at the <a href=\"http:\/\/edelweiss.abovethetreeline.com\/ProductDetailPage.aspx?sequence=34&#038;group=catalog&#038;mailingID=0&#038;mailingGroupID=0&#038;catalogID=5986&#038;Org=&#038;sku=0545291518\" target=\"_blank\">Scholastic Librarian Catalog for Animorphs #1<\/a> now proves that the Amazon cover was indeed the correct version.
