Throughout the Forest

Learning is so much fun when put to rhythm and rhyme!

Throughout Forest (one book in the Animals in Natural Habitats series) is a perfect non-fiction picture book for young children. The sing song-y rhyme makes it playful, yet educational. Rhyme, context clues and preposition (position word) clues lead children to infer animals they might find in the forest; making this a fun and interactive reading.

For example:

Throughout the Forest
Hiding in the tall grass
I spy a …
Who freezes as I pass

(Can you guess what might be flying up into the trees?)

Imagine hiking through the forest and happening upon a deer, bear, turkey, opossum, raccoon, owl or fox.
What else might you find?
