Book Review: Animalia by Graeme Base

School age: 2nd grade +

Developmental Skill: Cognitive and reasoning skills are important in all areas of development. This helps children to thing independently, increases vocabulary and builds self-confidence as they solve problems.

Book Review: This alphabet book has extravagant, colorful illustrations. Each alphabet syncs to an animal that performs actions that start with the same alphabet letter. As an adult I found this book to be fun - It's a book for the whole family to enjoy!

Activity:
Help you children find the hidden objects in the pictures. This is a great book to do with children of all ages because they can find new things each time. Besides the words listed on the page, look for other objects that start with that letter in the alphabet. When you're done reading, play the ABC game with objects around your house. Take turns finding objects that start with 'A', 'B', 'C', etc. This can be a fun game for the whole family!
