Layer By Layer: Into the Wild

by Anne Rooney, Suzanne Carpenter (Illustrator)

Peel back the layers, hear the sounds of the animals, and explore deep into the wilderness!

Unravel each layer of the wilderness and discover the creatures that are at home in the foothills, beneath the jungle canopy, on the scrubland, under the waves, across the savannah, and deep in the forest. Layer by Layer: Into the Wild features six natural habitats presented in a unique interactive format, with multiple layers for readers to peel back so they can follow the progress of the animals through the changing scenes. Along the way, kids will encounter surprises hidden under the layers, hear authentic animal sounds, and learn quick facts about how the animals survive in the wild. The layered scenes provide a sense of exploration for curious readers who are ready to uncover the amazing creatures that lie in wait.

This book is a really cool concept that does not work. I had lots of disappointed students.
