PreS-Gr 1–Discover a world of opposites, animals, and unique word pairings in this captivating concept book. Readers are introduced to a variety of animals and opposite pairings in this compelling board book. “Hello bright, Hello dull./ Hello empty, Hello full.” An author’s note at the end explains that each featured animal is under threat, providing age-appropriate details of the species and specific breed. A key indicates whether the animal is near-threatened, vulnerable, endangered, or near extinction.
VERDICT This is a great purchase for libraries looking to expand their animal or concept collections, and a great way to introduce an essential aspect of environmental studies for the young.
