This looks to be not only eye catching but educational also! I think I’d like to add some to our collection!
Thanks Pam for your review. I wish i would have had this book as a student asked me about a book to take care of a goldfish and this one sounds perfect. I will have to add it to the list.
These kind of books go out often at our school. The students like colorful pictures, and finding fast facts. All my life I’ve been told not to judge a book by its cover, but when a book has a great cover like this one, how can it be helped?!?! Thanks for the great review, Pam.
