- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5A brilliant concept book for learning about the wondrous things that can happen in just one animal's lifetime, visualizing large and small numbers, and the concept of averages.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5I thought this book was cute and informational! I believe it was sort of an informational text in regard to the fact about many different types of wildlife. The language was cute and included a few puns! These will definitely interest readers! For example, the page that states, "In one lifetime, the female red kangaroo will birth 50 joeys.. So many hoppy birthdays!" I thought this was adorable. I also liked how the story was told and the pace at which it was told. The writing was informative and engaging and told me some facts that I had prior knowledge of and some that I didn't even think about before! I enjoyed how there was a little bit of math involved throughout the text, and it pretty much made the text what it was. The reason I did not give the text 5 stars is because there is not much of an idea or message that I was able to take away from the book. There is also not much of a plot. If I'm really stretching for a main idea, it could be that all different types of wildlife have different ways of living, and these ways they live are not similar to the way humans live.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Excellent nonfiction book that deals with time and numbers and animals, and oh, hey! cool art, too.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5This was a very interesting way of looking at animals and looking at numbers. And some of the numbers are amazing large and eye opening. I can think of lots of kids who will love this book, and read it over and over again.#Wintergames #teamreadnosereindeer +16
