Review quotes

"Visually stunning, poetic, and informative ..."
— Lil Reader That Could

"[A] book that belongs in every classroom library. It is a beautiful and inspiring book that teaches children about the diversity and wonder of life on Earth."
— Little Cub Literacy

"Detailed, colorful illustrations showing a variety of creatures, from vibrant fish to playful penguins, will wow readers of all ages."
— Children's Literature Comprehensive Database

"In addition to appreciating the biodiversity of life around us, this book shares a great SEL message. It reminds us to treat those that live around us - no matter how they look or sound, no matter how many legs or wings they have - with kindness. And it does all of that that using lovely, lyrical language."
— Archimedes Notebook

"The structure of this book is superb, with each spread featuring a poem and realistic illustrations of different creatures that fit the poem. Because of its clear purpose and structure, it is a perfect mentor text for a cross-curricular activity with writing, poetry, and science!"
— Unleashing Readers
