Bookroo's summary
Explore the vibrant world of neighborhood wildlife through playful poems and whimsical illustrations. From buzzing bees to curious squirrels, each creature reveals its hidden charm. Dive into the natural-history backmatter for more insights, and uncover poetic secrets with the 'Peek into the Poet’s Toolkit.' This engaging journey blends reading, science, and language, inviting young readers to see the extraordinary in the ordinary.
From the publisher
Dan Tavis’s humorous illustrations crank up the delight, and a child wanting to learn more will find it in the natural-history backmatter. Pat Brisson employs a variety of verse forms in the book, and she shows how it’s done in a back-of-book feature called “A Peek into the Poet’s Toolkit.” Common Critters is a three-tool STEAM book with delightful reading, natural history, and language skills rolled into one.
