From fish and frogs to snakes and sala­man­ders, begin­ning read­ers will be enchant­ed by the amaz­ing array of orange ani­mals includ­ed in this book. Stun­ning pho­tos will delight young chil­dren and pro­vide the clues they need to suc­ceed in read­ing the sim­ple text.

Reviews

“The texts are brief and meant to rein­force col­or con­cepts, and the pho­tos are clear close-ups. Because of the books’ sim­plic­i­ty, chil­dren will feel as if they are real­ly read­ing, and they’ll pause to explore the engag­ing illus­tra­tions.” (School Library Jour­nal)

“These books fea­ture a pic­ture of an ani­mal on one page and the descrip­tion, e.g., ‘blue fish,’ on the fac­ing page, though there is one longer phrase in each book. The col­or pho­tographs are vibrant, and the for­mat will ben­e­fit ear­ly read­ers. Read­ing list, web­sites.” (Horn Book Guide)

Behind the Book

Orange Ani­mals is essen­tial­ly a sim­pli­fied ver­sion of my high­ly-acclaimed book Why Are Ani­mals Orange? The sim­ple text was easy enough to write, so find­ing just the right selec­tion of pho­tos was the most chal­leng­ing part of cre­at­ing this book. Luck­i­ly, Moth­er Nature didn’t let me down.”
