Editorial Reviews

PreS-Gr 2-It's summer in an Arctic region, and young polar bears, puffins, narwhals, foxes, and voles are waking and beginning their rollicking day. Last to arise is a young Inuit-looking child in a modern house who goes out to play, just as the animals did. Simple rhymed text with a bouncy cadence matches the playfully painted, realistic-looking animals. "Good morning, little musk ox,/It's time, I think you know,/To shake your messy tangles/Full of sparkly winter snow." This is a good storytime choice, and the additional information on each animal extends it to classroom use. The vocabulary may be challenging, but it's a good challenge with science connotations.-Angela J.
