Amazing
Gorillas
was created with the photographic support of the Wildlife Conservation
Society and it really is a visual delight for children who love animals.
There are full- color photos on every page. The photos of young gorillas
were particularly engaging. My five-year-old daughter was delighted
with it. It's a level 2 book so it's for children who can handle around
ten lines per two page spread so it's probably a bit daunting for
the youngest reader (though my daughter encountered few words she
couldn't read). The content has a strong conservation slant but it's
packed with interesting bits about gorillas - their social structure
and behaviors. Readers get all the important stuff for report
writing - life span, eating habits, size, etc. It would be an excellent
book for a child writing his or her first animal report and a great
gift for ape loving kids. |
