I would like to introduce you to a new children’s board book The book is written by Soledad Romero Mariño (Author), Sonia Pulido (Artist). I received a copy of the book in exchange for this review. Inside this post is my affiliate links. If you click on the links and make a purchase I will make a small percentage from the products you purchase.
If you know my family at all then you know we love most Animals or at least David does. As for me Bugs eek Snacks no, way no, how. Spiders are out to Charlie said which is fine because inside our new book The Secret Power of Animals the only Bug is the Dune
As for the cover of the book I wish you could see the Animals on the front of the bright blue cover. From a Cougar to a polar Bear and a Kitten and so much more that you will need to pick up a copy of the book to find out what.
If you know me then you know my favorite page was with the Elephant on it. I just wish they had a baby Elephant because there so cute. We learned the Elephant is the largest living Animal on Land. Charlie learned a new word Savanna which he looked up.
If we had been #Homeschooling full time we could have used The Secret Power of Animals in our Science Class, Spelling Class and so much more. There was a Owl for my mom. We learned about a Narwhal a Animal I couldn’t remember hearing of in the past. Have you heard of the Narwhal?
There is a page on Lizards in the book Charlie couldn’t wait to share with his Grandmother Sherry who has a Iguana called Izzy and she loves Lizards. Me not so much. How about you? My sister’s was the Cat that we wished we could have.
Each page has a flap you can open up that contains more facts for our children to read and keep the learning going. This book is for younger children although children of all ages and even adults can learn from this amazing book. I hope you check out The Secret Power of Animals soon and not only share it with your friends and family but any Teachers or Librarians you know as well as Animal lovers.
