Editorial Reviews

I really enjoyed the artwork and it clearly reflected the text. . . .Throughout the book, there are highlighted notes in boxes that give valuable information about the current subject. I also like that the animals in the artwork are labeled according to their spot in the food chain. The food web in the back of the book is a nice review of the entire book and really could be useful in a classroom setting as well as student projects and reference work. The simple story would also work well as a classroom readaloud.
