Customer Reviews

Love this book!

It is so hard to find nonfiction written with voice, and this book has it! Each article focuses on one "unhuggable" animal (snake, spider, cockroach, etc.) in a one to three page format that can easily be shared with kids. I have used them to teach determining importance and summarizing skills with kids in grades 2-6. One of my favorites as a model for a nonfiction mentor text.
