Funny and Fascinating Animals!

60773551. sx318

Funny and Fascinating Animals! is a colorful and exciting picture book for the youngest readers with lots of interesting facts about wild animals. Released 1st March 2022 by CrackBoom! Books, it's 64 pages and is available in hardcover format. 

This is an exuberantly colorful fact-filled book with an engaging format. Double page spreads are written around different features or behaviors for different animals. The chapter headings ask "whose tongue is this?", "whose favorite foods", "whose droppings", "whose tracks", and more. After reading the simple text and looking at the 2 first page illustrations, and guessing which tongue belongs to which animal, readers can turn the page and get explanations with the full picture on the next 2 page spread.

It's a clever outlay and the pictures are fun and energetically appealing. This would make a super library or classroom book as well as for gift giving. This would also be a good book for caregivers to spend time reading and interacting with their young children. There are both well known animals like cats and giraffes as well as more esoteric choices such as tarsiers and pacu. 

Five stars. I love nonfiction books for kids and this one is well written and illustrated and information rich. 

Disclosure: I received an ARC at no cost from the author/publisher for review purposes.
