Forest Fun
This is a great book. It tells a story, but at the same time it teaches lots of lessons.
A group of four animal friends gather in the woods where owl teaches them many things about the forest.
This includes how to make a shelter, a bug house (not my favorite thing), and lots of useful information.
At the same time, a story is going on. It revolves around mouse, his size, and feelings that he is too little. The animals are all kind to him, and everything works out.
The illustrations in this picture book are gorgeous; they are bright and very well done. I love that the book tells how to make things.
Also, it emphasizes that you need to be careful and safe in the woods, and some things should only be done with adults.
I recommend this book, and ages three through eight will enjoy this book.
Thanks to Candlewick Press & Templar Books, for providing Tickmenot with a complimentary copy of, “The Big Fort: The Forest School,” by Ruth Symons, for the purpose of review. Opinions are my own.
