Mattern is the author of many books for children. Her favorite topics include animals, biography, and history. She lives in the Hudson Valley of New York State.
I really enjoyed learning and reading about these amazing animals. It was very eye opening to what many animals are capable of. It also made me almost look at my pets differently based on this book. There was a lot of stories, like one every page and it kind of dragged on to much. I would have liked to learn more about each animal instead of having a new animal every page. Also a lot of the stories were very similar. But this is a really good quick nonfiction read.
I thought this book was good it told true stories about cool things that animals did to help or save people. I personally thought that it was good but it mostly told the same kind of stories that didn't really keep my attention at sometimes, but that's just because I don't read non-fiction books. But, for a first time book this was good.
I think this book is really good because you can read about real life events about animals that saved people.And this book is really easy to read and has interesting stories.
i recommend this book for information and fun to read
