An exciting and stimulating treat for those open to the picture book format but capable of reading advanced middle-grade text. This one will need, and is worthy of, hand-selling.
Kids will get a kick out of this great mix of illustrations and animal facts. Libraries that have the previous titles in their collection should add this one to the set. Consider purchasing the entire series so readers can peruse all the “What If You Had...?” books.
Well organized, clearly written, and excitingly illustrated, this highly enlightening work is an excellent addition for any nature collection as well as for the study of the environment and endangered species.
A fun read peppered with information, this title is sure to inspire some madcap discussions in a classroom.-Patricia Manning, formerly at Eastchester Public Library, NY
An excellent choice to enhance science programs for upper elementary schoolers. Pair this book with Melissa Stewart's No Monkeys, No Chocolate to see how rain forest monkeys are essential to the production of chocolate.
