Publisher's Synopsis
This is entertaining education at its best. Written by a father of three, If You Could Be . . . The Critter You See uses simple rhymes, stunning photography, and clever illustrations to introduce some of nature's most marvelous and peculiar animals.
How would it feel to be nine stories tall; to fly forward and backward; or to blend into your surroundings and become almost invisible?
A collection of surprises that stimulates a child's imagination, this book creates lasting impressions of the animal world and makes simple, yet incredible, facts easy to remember. Does your child know that...
- There is a critter whose tongue is roughly the size of an elephant?
- One critter can inflate its body like a balloon?
- There are critters who can change their skin color depending on their surroundings?
This delightful new picture book by Kirk Eason lets children ages three to seven imagine life as a fascinating critter. The book is more than just fun. It sparks children's innate curiosity, personalizes their learning experience, and adds meaning to a host of unforgettable and intriguing facts. A quiz at the end reinforces what young readers have learned and will help them remember these critters for life.
