My Review:
I love this book!  There are some fun facts along with great pictures that include so many animals.  My 2 year old son loves paging through this book and labeling the animals and making their sounds.  My 6 year old daughter loves learning about the animals and her favorite is the animal facts that are included on each page.  

I am thrilled that this book is a christian book but also aligned with the Common Core.  

For only $9.99 it will provide hours of reading fun!  Pick it up from Zondervan!

The bright, emotive art by Nomar Perez will draw kids in, and a note in the back provides tips and techniques parents and caregivers can use to help young children process their feelings in a beneficial way. God, I Feel Scared  teaches kids ages 4 to 8 how to: Identify the feeling of fear and recognize thin...
