BUYING ADVISORY: EL - ADVISABLE
APPEALS TO: SEVERAL
Animals in the wild play games just like human children. Sometimes the games are just for fun, but other games help them evade predators or catch their food.
While billed as a picture book, the amount of information within marks it so much more. Laberis’s illustrations capture the fun and joy in playtime, too. No one would read this for leisure, but those who do will learn a lot! A teacher could read a little day to their class as they have an animal unit, too. Because of the picture book format, I wouldn’t recommend it for most middle schools, though.
