Beaver and Otter Get Along...Sort of is a beautifully illustrated very simple story of life in and around a stream habitat and the lives of the animals who live there. Due out 7th Sept 2021 from Sourcebooks Kids, it's 40 pages and will be available in hardcover, paperback, and ebook formats.
Beaver finds the perfect place to make his home. He works until he is satisfied with his safe and comfy lodge. With his construction, a pond forms which attracts all kinds of new animals who make their homes in the area, including a family of otters. They're very active and sometimes make holes in Mr. & Mrs. Beaver's dam which the beavers spend a lot of time trying to repair. Can they learn to be neighbors?
The text in this short book is easy to read and understand. The art is beautifully rendered and full of small details which will also provide fun for hunt-and-find play during reading time.
Four stars. This would make a superlative choice for public or classroom library acquisition, home library, or for caregivers/childminders.
Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
