How to Hide a Polar Bear & Other Mammals (Grosset & Dunlap All Aboard Book)

Rating:
Summary: Children love this book
Review: I am a teacher of 3 to 6 year olds and they love to find the animals hidden and get so tickled that I had to buy all of Ruth Heller's books like this. The colors are so bright and vivid that they really attract the children's attention and keep it alot longer than other books do. This book is interactive with children and they like that.

Summary: Not the best of the series
Review: This series in general is excellent, and this is not a bad book at all, it's just that the other books in this series are much better. Let's face it, mammals don't change color or mimic sticks, or other such interesting things while hiding. Mostly they try to blend in to the background, and since the style of drawing in this series tends to de-emphasize background, the mammals don't hide too well comparatively speaking. Buy it if your child loves the series, but for starters, I'd recommend "How to Hide a Butterfly" or "How to Hide a Meadow Frog" instead.
