Review

This series introduces children to animals with which they might not be familiar in a fun way. Each book focuses on one animal. Jigsaw puzzle pieces reveal different parts of the animal for children to inspect while reading simple, large print sentences about the picture. A fact box at the end gives more information. Particularly helpful to children is a silhouette of the animal next to those of an adult and a child to give them more perspective on the animal's size. A highlighted map of the animals range is also included. The concept of the book is simple but fun. It will give children something to think and talk about. Emergent readers will have fun with these!

Overall Book Score: good
