This is a really cute and entertaining book! The language is great for wee littles, but there are extra little fun facts throughout that make the book interesting for older kiddos as well! Plus, the kiddos get a little science lesson mixed in with this picture book! It's a win-win for everyone--perfect for a mixed age storytime group!
I enjoy these Bamboo and Friends books because they have a descriptive/instructional science story. They also have snippets of informational text interspersed that can be shared if the kids are receptive but can also be skipped and you don't mess up the integrity of the story.
