I didn't like reading this book very much. The illustrations are very old seeming. They are simply lines and colors and their isn't much realism or depth to them. I also didn't like the sentence structure of the book. The sentences were short and to the point. An example of this is "a playground is a place to play." Although, I didn't enjoy reading it I did like the added text features it had, which were labeling each part of the playground (swing, slide, etc.) I think the big message of this book is to inform what and how a playground is used.
