Title: Great for young "readers"
Review: My son turned four in November, he knows all his letters, and he is starting to be able to "read" simple words, especially if they are repeated frequently. Does a Kangaroo Have a Mother, Too? is a perfect book for him to start "reading". The bulk of the text repeats with every page turn -- the only change being the animal in question. Because he can recognize the animals, he can essentially "read" the entire book. That is pretty exciting for him.If I didn't already love Eric Carle's artwork before, I would have after I saw the peace dove he created last month. I already did love his work, however, so now I just have a deeper appreciation for it. His illustrations are vibrant, textured, easily recognizable both for the subject and as being Carle's work, and virtually hum with life. There is a reason why he has been illustrating so successfully for so long. There is a reason why he is one of the most well-known names in children's literature today.
