My daughter is 6. She likes all the Adventure of Riley books. The adventure story is fun while you learn about new places and amazing facts about the unusual animals that live there. We also like the real photos of animals intermixed into the illustrated scenes. Usually there is some mystery Riley helps to solve regarding the animals and the environment.
