It provides the readers a look at the true definition of a mammal while giving examples that are easy to relate too. Personal Reaction: I enjoyed the book because of the poetry and wording of provided in the text. Of course this type of knowledge we are aware of, but to children it gives insight into a topic most are unaware of. I personally enjoyed the illustrations and way the author made this subject appeal to almost anyone. Classroom Extension Ideas: 1. I think this is a great book for all students in the classroom. Animals lovers or students who have pets can relate and learn from the topic. This book is almost like a child's intro to biology (or mammalogy really), which I like and I think any child would find interesting. However, maybe I'm nitpicking, but the way the book was written is really odd to me. At first it starts out rhyming, then on certain pages it stops or has breaks between pages that don't flow well. This makes it a bit difficult to read with any rhythm. I thought the pictures were well-done, except they seemed bland. Just animals kind of hanging out on a page not doing anything. I think any child would love to read this book, but I felt like a lot more could be done, both creatively and educationally, to make this book a lot better. no reviews | add a review
