Customer Reviews

My Preschooler loves this book

This is a great book if your preschooler loves to look and hear about animals and their habits. It is a bit much if your preschooler is not ready to sit and examine things in detail. But for those animal-lovers it is a great book series!

A nice text and great illustrations

This short book has a few lines of simple text for each two-page illustration about the winter habits of various animals. The author looks at animals like monarch butterflies which fly south, animals that hibernate like the woodchuck, and the animals which continue to forage in the winter like the pika, deer, and mice. The drawings are lovely in detail. This book would be ideal to read to a child at bedtime on a nice winter night.

Animals in Winter

This is a very interesting book, written in simple text for the youngest reader or listener. It will really open up the dialog concerning hibernation with my students. The illustrations are beautifully done and illustrate all the interesting facts.

Animals in Winter - Worth Buying

I am a kindergarten teacher and I absolutely love this book. My students loved it too. I teach a unit on hibernation and this book was a great resource. It has great facts and is written for any age group. After I read it to them, my students have read it over and over.
