My 4 year old loved the art in this so much that he made up his own stories about the dogs rather than wanting to hear the text! But it's a nicely set up book with different amounts of text depending on your kid's interest levels: just the word, a little poem, or an information paragraph.

This informational book provides an overview about peacocks, including scientific terminology, family structure, eating habits, habitats, preening behaviors, etc.

Although this book is older, it appeared to still be accurate in its entirety. There were some things I did already know about peacocks but I must admit there were some things that even us adults learned from this book. For instance, did you know that peacocks can eat cobras?!

The text is peppered with many beautiful full-color show more photographs as well as some questions to quiz kids on what they just learned, which is great in helping them to retain the information they just read or heard. A table of contents, a glossary, and other helpful tools are included. show less

Ruth Berman describes many different aspects of bison life in this book. Starting by where they are located historically and today, the survival modes they use to stay alive, to innocuous things such as how they raise their young and how they act in different seasons. Overall a wonderful account on every aspect of American Bison life and their relationship with humans.

Sharks are amazing animals and are were cool living things and also cool about sharks is that sharks live basically around the world. Sharks are just so amazingly interesting.Sharks have over 375 species. each species has unique name look and size, but some species of sharks have died off and became extinct. Sharks are actually apart of the fish group that are made mostly with cartilage.Sharks have the senses of hearing, feeling, and tasting.Sharks use those senses for hunting their prey, show more etc. Finally, when you see or find a shark please do not harm it or trap it.

I think this book is a nice and decent book about sharks.I also think that this book is a nice book with important info for people who read this book.I also think that this book will tell people not to kill sharks because they are important for our ecosystem in the waters of the world. Why kill sharks when you can always go to the aquarium and see one. I also think that this book is a really interesting and an educating book about sharks and what they are, and how their bodies work. show less
