El safari de los animales

by Karen Lee

Let’s search for adventure above in the sky. We’ll scout through the mountains and hills, and then try exploring the forests, the meadows and plains, cross the dry desert and through jungle rains. We’ll trek through a swamp, in a puddle, a pond, in lakes and the river, the ocean beyond. But, what are we looking for? Who will we see? Find animals on this ABC Safari with me!

I loved the attention to detail in this book. The illustrations were fantastic and well thought out. For example, in most books, hippos are portrayed in a zoo on land, or just a nose above water, but this hippo was shown swimming from under water - his true natural state! There is a rich amount of information from text and illustrations about each animal.

What: This is such a cute book. It goes through the alphabet using different animals and has a short one or two sentence poem to describe them.
So What: Students must learn about different different animals and what they need to survive. Cross-curricular activities provide for a better learning experience for children.
Now What: Students may choose an animal and write their own short poem about it. This crosses over different content areas allowing students to gain a better understanding of multiple topics.

Learning about animals in science? Well this book would be a great introduction or reference. It lists an animal for each letter of the alphabet and gives a brief description of the animal and its temperment. The illustrations also show what the habitat for that animal might look like. This book is touches on more than one point about each animal. This book would be a great addition to a science work station. It's a combo!

Short verse for every letter of the alphabet. I loved finding all the fun things hidden in the illustrations. I really like the extra information this publisher provides at the end of each of their books. Their website is fantastic. www.sylvandellpublishing.com

As a mother the pictures are interesting and it teaches facts about animals in alphabet order. My three month old is interested in looking at the pictures, and this seems to be a one time read for my three year old.

the pictures are stunning

It's wonderful as a picture book. I didn't care for the story. Why does it have to rhyme? It felt very forced. I would love to read this to a child as it has many teaching opportunities.
