An excellent book for curious children passionate about animals and trying to find out what each and every one of them are doing in real life. I loved the illustrations and the funny descriptions, which enables the reader to create togehter with the child nice plays. It stimulates curiosity and imagination and brings the pre-schooler close to the overwhelming diversity of nature.
First off, thanks to Publisher/Net Galley for giving me an opportunity to read this book.
This is a good book. It has plenty of information on animals. The book has been divided into chapters based on geographic landforms and animals in each of these regions are explained in an easy to understand and in a funny way too. A must have for young readers. My guess is age group 6-8 will be delighted by the book and above will be interested.
One small suggestion, based on the name of the book...What do animals do all day...i was under the impression that daily activity of an animal would be described. For eg: How much does an elephant eat in a day, how much water does a horse need. May be its my ignorance.
Overall a very enjoyable book. Even adults can pick up quite a bit of information reading it.
This is a great book and one that I would have loved to have owned when I was younger! The layout is great and I loved that you can learn more about the different animals featured. Really entertaining book for any young animal lovers out there.
This is a book that went on instant pre-order for me. What Do Animals Do All Day was a fantastic journey through the the Earth' s habitats. It showcased many animals and gave each a job. The jobs were amazing from hairdresser to architect and engineer. The book showed and encouraged the reader to see animals in a different way. I was very impressed by layout, presentation and description. This is a book I can see children referring back to time and time again.
This book would be perfect for preschool through middle elementary, there were plenty of facts and opportunities for teachers/parents to ask predicting questions to help stimulate their interest. I only suggest that while the illustrations are simply lovely, many could be replaced with photographs instead, to make this nonfiction book really pop. Thanks to #NetGalley for the opportunity to preview #WhatDoAnimalsDoAllDay by Wendy Hunt.
This book was just so much fun! Ive been doing preschool at home for my two year old, and I found this book, and had to review it. I did a week full of animals, and this book was just such a fun addition to our “curriculum” for animal week. The book was so cute, and we’re still having fun reading it, weeks after Animal week!
Children who love animals will love this book! What Do Animals Do All Day? explores animals grouped by their habitat and the jobs they do within their natural environment. From a coral reef to a desert to the North Pole to your own backyard and more, kids will learn a lot about a variety of animals!
Colorful, with plenty of information and loads of animals - I found it hard to keep up with the information. So a page by page and slow study is better when showing / reading to kids. Otherwise, it's lovely.
