A very cute and colorful bedtime story about a mother and child saying goodnight to various animals that live in the arctic. This would be a good book to read to an elementary classroom when learning about biomes and different animals that live in them. My love for this book might be a little biased because of a majority of my favorite animals are featured in it.
"Ocean's Child," was an adorable book that shows how a child leaves and loves the nature. The book shows all of the different animals and the way that life is on the ocean. This book is a poem book and the poem is like a lullaby to me. It shows the gentle and calmness of the ocean and the peace that one feels from it. The book is wonderful and simply beautiful. It would be a great book to read to children to calm them down right before nap time.
The pictures illustrated by David Diaz in this book is simply amazig. I love this book to bring in different cultures. It has the words in Spanish and on the next page it is the same thing in English. It is about all the bright colors and where you can find them.
Color illustrations teach young readers about animals you would find in the ocean, this is a very peaceful book during a transition into nap time.
