What Do You Do with a Tail Like This? (Caldecott Honor Book) Review
User Submitted What Do You Do with a Tail Like This? (Caldecott Honor Book) ReviewsNovember 13, 2008 child's age It would be very helpful if you mentioned the age(s) of the children for whom the books have been written. grandparents Seattle, WA October 3, 2008 Great for Art Teachers too! This book has amazing images of collage to create animals, and students love the content as well! August 29, 2008 Wonderful book! I bought this book for my preschool classroom. The kids can't get enough of it and they love guessing which tail belongs to which animal. It's a great early reader for them too! July 29, 2008 What DO you do with a tail like this? A very beautifully illustrated smart book, WHAT DO YOU DO WITH A TAIL LIKE THIS helps kids think outside the box. My 3 year old daughter found it interesting the some creature have ears, mouth, etc. in other place then us humans. The book that starts with a question ends with wanting to ask more questions like the one my daughter asked, "Why do flies have 6 legs and spiders have 8?" I really couldn't answer why but I think this book helped her be more observant. Interestingly beautiful illustrations help grab attention too, that was the reason I purchased this book in first place. The artist captures every necessary detail with his unique, almost surreal style which permeates throughout the book. June 19, 2008 Small wonder this book has received so much attention! One of the loveliest and most thought out books to hit children's bookshelves in years! The information is so interesting and presented together with such unusual paper art the book just captivates its reader. Ann Clarke, author of People Are So Different! based on tolerance and understanding. October 2, 2007 Great book for interaction! This book is really hands on, and gets lots of talking and questions going with my 3 and 5 yr olds. It's a clever book and we've had a lot of fun with it. August 21, 2007 From preschooler to kindergartner to Mommy, everyone loves this book! My family loves this book! Both my sons, ages three and five, enjoy trying to guess which animal this tail, nose, foot, etc., belongs to, and then reading what the animal "does" with it. In the back of the book are more in-depth descriptions of the animals, which we also enjoyed. We ordered this book from Amazon over a year ago, and it is still a top choice when we sit down to read! June 13, 2007 My kids love this! Great educational and fun book! My kids' favorite is the horned lizard shooting blood out of his eyes. Lovely collage illustrations too. May 25, 2007 L U C K Y T W I C E ! ! ! It is a good, informative book. Although my 9 years old son seems to be very old for this kind of reading, I still bought it for him because of the book's educational value. Surprise, surprise! - my Big Boy liked the book a lot(!) We now quiz each other about various animals... Another good book that I value a lot for its educational content is Why Some Cats are Rascals, Book 2 by B. Nowiki. I was afraid that in this case my son would to be a "little too little", but he is now reading it and seems to have even more fun... - lucky me, again! May 13, 2007 Fascinating animal facts Little known anatomical facts on a number of interesting animals that should entertain inquisitive youngsters. For more What Do You Do with a Tail Like This?
