 Does a Kangaroo Have a Mother, Too? - Eric Carle ... with their caring and affectionate mothers come to life in Carle's vibrant collage. The playful question and answer text invites children and adults to read aloud together. Repetition of key phrases helps preschoolers take the first step towards reading readiness. The gamelike format makes it easy to discover more about the world of nature and to learn the common names of some familiar - and not-so-familiar - animals. At the back of the book there is a special page listing the correct, but sometimes surprising names of animal babies, their parents and groups.Newest Review: ... illustrations have a collage-effect.

~ Style, Format, Content and Educational Value ~

I particularly like is the page at the back of the book which acts as a reference for any adult unsure of certain animal babies, parents and groups of animals, e.g. I never knew that a group of giraffes was called a tower as well as a herd.
