Worth, Bonnie Once
Upon a Mastodon: All About Prehistoric
Animals Illustrated by Aristides Ruiz
and Joe Mathieu Random House, 2014. EARLY READER
$9.99 Content: G.
The Cat in the Hat takes a couple of kids on
a history lesson about prehistoric animals.
He explains what a mammal is and how they use fossils to discover more
about what prehistoric animals looked like and what they ate. Then they talk about specific types of
animals, including cavemen.
This is a
fun first look at the Ice Age time period.
There is a lot of text-too much for my beginning reader (kindergarten),
but it’s a fun read aloud because it rhymes.
First or second graders could read it.
My kids were interested in it because they love the movie Ice Age and it
has some of the same animals. The
pictures are bright and anytime there is a word that is hard to pronounce there
is a guide to sound it out.
