Review
School Library Journal
All three books have excellent pictures that allow for vocabulary building and for children's "rereading" the books on their own. Parents, teachers, and librarians will find these attractive and age-appropriate books easy to use. Recommended for libraries and bookstores.Children's Literature
Though the book stimulates more advanced readers, it is also satisfying to younger audiences who may enjoy the quiet actions of rabbits trying on shoes, or purchasing produce. As such, siblings or classmates of different levels may share the book without getting bored. Like its companion in the series, this book suggests activities that challenge the reader to interact with the information from the book. 2003 (orig. 1998), Kingfisher Publications, Ages 3 to 5.
