Learning and playing form a perfect match in this innovative book featuring four animal habitats, sixteen magnetized animal pieces, and dozens of ways to discover interesting things about animals and their environments. The magnetized pieces are grouped according to habitat, species type (bugs, reptiles, mammals, birds), and color. Pre-readers can use color and picture clues to help them complete each scene by placing a particular animal onto a magnetized spot. Slightly older youngsters can also employ counting, reading, and deductive reasoning skills, as well as basic science knowledge - and play at the same time!
Book Description
Editorial Reviews
From Publishers Weekly
In another animal-themed approach, Animal Match by Simone Abel asks youngsters to place 16 magnetized animal pieces (all on a pull-out tray that acts as the book's front cover) on four spreads of different habitats (each gets a spread in an oversize chunky board book). Color and picture clues will aid youngest readers, while older children can match animals to their habitats based on questions (e.g., "What swings through the trees and lives in a group?"). (Dial, $14.99 8p ages 2-8 ISBN 0-8037-2645-7; May)

5.0 out of 5 stars
Great book for kids who love animals!!,
By A Customer
This review is from: Animal Match (Board book)
My husband got this book for our son last Christmas, he was only 1 year then. But he still loved looking at the colorful pictures. However, he finally caught on about where to place the animals and now does it all by himself. He loves the animals and can name them all and make the appropriate noises. This book teaches kids so many things from colors, to animals, to learning that certain things go in certain places. A must have for every learning child!!!
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: Animal Match (Board book)
I use this book with my sons who are special needs. There are different ways to match the animals, it allows for ability level and cooperation level. I recommend this book for working on matching skills using color or the color and the animal. It also opens communication: woodland animals versus jungle animals, for example.
