After reading Where Are the Night Animals, I found that the illustrations and words throughout the book give the students a good learning tool. They can learn new terminology as well as any animals that they did not knew were nocturnal animals. At the back of the book, it provides us with more information of each animal that is talked about throughout the book. It explains what each animal is going to do throughout the day since they are nocturnal. We can talk about what noises you hear at night to explain which animals are nocturnal and which are not. As an activity for the class, we can make mice nests. The book provides us with steps and materials needed to build a mouse nests. We can also have the students do homework such as going outside and finding any nocturnal animals that they see or hear. They can go out with their family as an activity and look for footprints of raccoons or hear if there are owls outside in the trees.
I really like this book, but after a few pages it goes "the night is over, the animals return to their dens" then immediately starts talking about the animals doing stuff at night again, and at the end it does the "the night is over..." thing again. Would be much better without that first pseudo-ending.
Beautifully and realistically illustrated, "Where are the Night Animals?" tells the story of several North American nocturnal animals (i.e., barn owl, opossums, tree frogs, skunk, coyote, raccoon, harvest mice) on a typical evening. In additional to contrasting diurnal and nocturnal animals, this book discusses how each of these nocturnal animals have adapted to survive in the dark.
This book is fantastic! It is part of the "Let's read and find out science" series. The book teaches children about how and where night animals live. The illustrations are very detailed and realistic. I highly recommend this book for parents whose children love nature and/or science.
Fraser introduces young readers to the nocturnal animals that wake up after they go to bed. Scope is limited to North American animals that students are likely to encounter. Back matter shows where these animals might sleep or hide during the day.
