3-0 out of 5 stars Disappointing
I buy the Rookie-read-aloud science books for my first-grader, but I generally love them, too. As a series, these books are wonderful. This individual title was disappointing to me and not as good as some of the others.

I expected to be shown what things looked like through the animals' eyes. That was done for an insect only (seeing in mosaic) and dogs & cats (seeing in black and white). Other animals visual perceptions were not attempted.

Also, I still haven't figured out what animal is on the cover!

5-0 out of 5 stars A great book about animals for the animal-loving child
This book is full of great facts for children of all ages. I bought this book for an 8 year old who wants to be a small animal veterinarian when she grows up, and she fell in love with this book instantly. ... Read more

Book Description

The Great Unknown tells, in words and pictures, the story of one of the most important turning points in the study of natural history. Two hundred years ago, Charles Willson Peale, founder of America"s foremost natural history museum, heard that a number of large bones were found buried in a farm field in upstate New York. He journeyed there and, with great effort, excavated and eventually assembled the bones into an almost complete fossil skeleton, only the second in the world. It was the first skeleton ever assembled of what we now call a mastodon. The imposing mastadon skeleton was soon put on display in Peale"s museum in Philadelphia. People came from all over to see the huge creature. Not only did Peale"s curiosity and determination pave the way for future paleontologists, his discovery of the mastodon was pivotal in convincing the public of the reality of extinction. ...

5-0 out of 5 stars My Baby Loves It!
No other book will do -- my 6 month old has been obsessed with this book for over 2 months.It is the only book that holds a candle to her Baby Van Gogh video.On a couple of occasions when the book was not nearby and she was fussy, I simply said "Do donkeys dance?", and she immediately quieted to stare at my face, waiting for the next line!She smiles when she sees the cover.

5-0 out of 5 stars Sure-fire treat for young ones!
This is my 5-1/2 month old baby's favorite book!I purchased this book because it was highly recommended by Oppenheim, and I've been really pleased.A huge smile appears on my baby's when we turn to the first page.He "talks" and smiles the whole way through.The images are simple and bold, and have a whimsical appeal that really strikes a chord with us.The book focuses on different animal actions, such as the pages, "Do hippos hop?No, fleas do!"To make it even more fun, we add sound effects, such as what kind of noise a hopping hippo would make, as well as fleas.I think that we're going to need a couple more copies, because this book is such a winner with us, we'll wear multiple copies out!

4-0 out of 5 stars Can be used as a learning tool
This book has very cute illustrations that will make kidslaugh.The title page begins a series of questions about the actionsof different animals like, "Do pigs buzz around flowers?" After the question, the next page answers the question which is always, "no, this animal does that behavior".I think this book would make a good learing tool.It is good for teaching verbs, opposites and animal names.However, there were some things I didn't like about the book.It asks the question, "Do donkeys dance" on the title page" and the next page is a picture of a girl but the answer to the question is not printed on the page.I think that some other words are too complex for begining readers, like the word flamingo.
