Animals Of The Night November 1, 2008

This is a wonderful book to acquaint children with nature. I work with a child in READS and he is almost a non reader. He loved that book. We took turns reading the pages. MaryOlt

My 1 year old learned half her 30-word vocabulary from this book, she loves it so much! Of course, it also taught her how to howl like a wolf. :) Meanwhile, everyone from 1 to 100 enjoys the detailed information on wildlife. A favorite.
 Animal pop-up with sounds March 28, 2008
3 out of 3 found this review helpful
Maurice Pledger's book have great illustrations that are detailed and true to life. Any of his books should be visually pleasing. This book contains five two-page pop-up layouts covering different habitats (Euro woodland, Mediterranean scrubland, Rocky Mountains, Florida swamps, and Malaysian jungle). Each layout has animals and insects that are active at night. When you open a pop-up page, sounds that you would hear in that habitat play (e.g. wolves, cicadas). The sounds do not play continuously but, with a slight manipulation of the page, can easily be played again. Between each pop-up layout is a page with a numbered diagram to help identify the species featured, along with more information.
This book could be a favorite that grows with a child, as the colorful pop-ups and sounds will entertain when young, and the info and topic could be discussed when older. The sounds are nice b/c they aren't continuous, and battery replacement is an option.
The pop-ups are very nice with animal movement or springing up from the page. I do not feel the pop-ups are lacking, but they aren't as dazzling as some of the paper engineering out there.
A super neat book for kids December 7, 2007
4 out of 5 found this review helpful
This is areally lovely pop up book with sounds. It's best if a parent supervises a small child who has this book so the child does not destroy the intricate pop ups. A great book for bedtime reading or when reading with a child. The sounds are great. My children 6 and 8 enjoyed it immensely. Includes details about the habitats and behaviors of the animals in the book.
