Itty-Bitty Animals by Joan Emerson –ADVISABLE


Emerson, Joan Itty-Bitty Animals EARLY READER. Scholastic Inc., 2014. $3.99 Content: G
This appealing early reader level 2 features a wide span of animals that are the smallest of their species, including a bat, an owl, a dog, a cow, a donkey, hedgehogs, and more. It provides two or three interesting facts and defines the more technical science terms in the back of the book.
This is a really fun book full of large clear images of each animal and easy to read text. The cover is flowery and features a cute teacup puppy, so it might be more appealing to girl readers, I wish they could have made it more gender neutral. I think this book will be adored by early readers none the less.
