5.0 out of 5 stars Chickens Aren't the Only Ones, February 8, 2000
By R. Wutke (Girard, KS) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chickens Aren't the Only Ones (World of Nature Series) (Paperback)
Children will enjoy listening to you read this delightful book about egg-laying animals and their unique eggs. The colorful illustrations in this story are vivid and make the book come alive with fascinating detail. The words in rhyme tell this story in an informational, but highly interesting way that will attract children. They will want to read it again to be sure they do not miss any of the remarkable pictures this book offers. The pages about the octopus and insects are my most favorite because they tell their story in such a simple way. This book would be an excellent resource for children beginning to learn about egg-laying animals. I would recommend this book to everyone who loves great picture books.

5.0 out of 5 stars Ultimate Egg Book, September 29, 2001
By Darryl Nightingale (Chung Li City Taiwan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Chickens Aren't the Only Ones (World of Nature Series) (Paperback)
With an elegant rhyming text and glorious full-page illustrations, this marvellous little book manages to convey it's information both succinctly and powerfully.

Birds,snakes, lizards,crocodiles, turtles, dinosaurs, frogs, toads, salamanders, fish, seahorses, sharks, rays, snails, spiders, insects, and a couple of mammal-like critters all lay eggs.

My Preschool and Kindergarten ESL students love it! I'd give it ten stars if I could.
