Note: I accessed a digital review copy of this book through Edelweiss. Some animals travel in packs or herds: a dazzle of zebras, a charm of hummingbirds, a school of fish. For other animals, there's no name for their group, because they are solitary animals: they prefer to be alone. These include octopuses, panthers, eagles, and sloths. The text lends itself beautifully to reading aloud, somewhere between a poem and a joke (setup, punchline). Many illustrations, like the cover, are on a dark background; the endpapers use a bright green similar to night-vision goggles. Back matter includes "more about solitary animals" in Q&A format. ingen anmeldelser | tilføj en anmeldelse

"This lyrical, nonfiction text honors animals who live in solitude, in contrast to others who live in groups. Against a backdrop of the specific names of various animal tribes (a parade of elephants, a tower of giraffes, a dazzle of zebras), Stein shines a spotlight on those animals who go through life on their own. With nature at his back, Stein invites readers to draw strength and comfort from the behaviors of fellow mammals. Perfect for children who tend to be alone and their parents...as well as all children, who will be encouraged to respect the "natural" choices of their peers"-- No library descriptions found. |
