Review
Clear, full page photographs clearly show a squirrel doing all kinds of things a squirrel would typically do during the day including running, sitting, hopping, and eating. At one point, a hungry hawk is threatening the squirrel, who then shows how well they can hide. The picture of the squirrel peeking out of the tree is particularly cute. Each photograph is accompanied by a white page with a simple three word "I can" statement telling what the squirrel is doing in the photo. Young children love looking at animals. They also get excited when they begin to be able to read. This book will allow the very beginning reader to read it and enjoy the very active photos as well. A good choice for those beginning readers.
Overall Book Score: good
