What Parents Should Know
Sensitive Topics
The book includes a scientifically accurate but potentially sensitive depiction of the food chain. One illustration shows a bird of prey with a fish in its talons. This is presented as a natural fact, without drama or anthropomorphism. The approach is entirely secular and scientific.
Ideal Reader
This book is ideal for a 3- to 6-year-old who is starting to ask questions about animals and nature. It's perfect for a child who loves poring over detailed pictures, pointing out different creatures, and learning new vocabulary. It would also suit a child who benefits from nonfiction that is broken into small, digestible chunks of information rather than a long narrative.
