Review
This is a very informative book that would be appropriate for a child in grades 3 to 5 doing a report on elephants. It would also be interesting to a younger child who is being read to. The format is such that each 2 page spread covers a topic such as growing up, feeding, teeth, trunks, etc. There are photographs of elephants in their natural habitats on all the pages. The facts are written in a way that is easy to understand and very interesting to the reader. I learned that touch is very important to elephants and that when a new baby is born all the other elephants in the herd crowd around the baby to touch it.
Overall Book Score: excellent
