On Safari to See the Animals and the Birds, by Sandy Hill (Independently published, $11.99, 2018, 36ppPB) Review by Skye Anderson
On Safari to See the Animals and the Birds is a fun and challenging learning experience not only for kids but also for parents and families - and big kids, too!
Eight animal photographs that the author took appear along with cute cartoon animals and plants - each one to a page along with a page of their footprints (tracks), asking you to guess their identity.
A page full of interesting facts about an animal leads you to guess who it is before you turn the page to find the answer - a whole page devoted to the animal (bird) plus another with its tracks. Then, on to the next.
Many animals and birds are too difficult to guess correctly so this book serves to educate: the more you read and participate, the more you learn.
And there are blank pages for you to draw animals or their tracks - or yours!
This is a book to take with you!
A family of raccoons, a male peacock in bloom, owls with spectacles, tigers with stripes all help you learn how to tell a cat-like animal from a bird from a dog-like animal.
