Each page of this book has no more than one sentence of main text. Supporting that main text are other literary and visual elements that support the information in the main text. One page may be all about size and another about diet.

This book is so great because it is an easy to read informational text. Early readers will be able to access the language and information in this book without much difficulty. The illustrations are fun and the pages feel energetic and full of information.
