I like how this children‘s book includes a table of contents. It would be good to use to introduce to children the basics to a non-fiction book.

(2015) This book is about animals living in cold environments/habitats and how they sustain themselves in it. It‘s full of information and has pretty illustrations. It would be of interest to young children, since animals usually intrigue them.

My favorite piece is about the traveling animals who hunt and look for food. The picture is also amazing to look at.

This book was a great read because of the accuracy and information children can gain from reading it. Simple words make this an easier and interesting read for children. Pictures also show what they might look like. The information seems up to date as well.

The Frozen Wild was written in 2015 by Jim Arnosky. This book is about areas in the cold and animals that live there. It talks about the winter coming and the animals that travel and survive in it. I really liked this book and think it‘s perfect for adults to read to kids and inform them about everything!

Deer change from a summer coat of fine, glossy hairs to a winter coat of longer, thicker hairs that are hollow and have air trapped inside them for warmth.

I loved the fold out pages in this book. It made it really fun to read. Each fold out had more information and facts about similar animals. This would be a great non-fiction book for children to read.

I liked this book about how animals survive in the coldest places on earth. This book has a table of contents as well as pictures to go along with specific facts about specific animals. These pictures aid children in conceptual understanding in case they do not fully understand some of the information.

This book was extremely interesting to me since I love learning about animals. It was cool to hear about how these different animals can go through such extremes and still find a way to survive.
