What Do You Do with a Tail Like This? (Caldecott Honor Book)

Disapppointment
I don't know why, but my three year old granddaughter does not like this book and refuses it every time it is offered. Any thoughts?

A Definite Winner
I can easily see why What Do You Do With a Tail Like This? is a Caldecott Honor Book. The cut-paper collage of animals is very artistic, and the way the book is written is very creative. A small portion of five animal parts (either noses, ears, tails, eyes, mouths, or feet) are shown, and you are to guess which animal the part belongs to and how it is used. Even if your children can easily figure out and memorize what they are looking at, I think they can have fun with this book for a long time. There is a good chance that some of the 30 animals in the book will be uncommon to you. Some of the animals found in Jenkins' and Page's book include the African elephant, striped skunk, blue-footed booby and giant anteater. In the back of the book you can find out more interesting facts about the animals. You and your kids will definitely gain from reading this book. I highly recommend it.

Thanks
Book came quickly and in great condition. We love this book! Thank you!

excellent!
Jenkins really has the market cornered on this kind of literature. A vast wealth of information that will make your kids fall in love with other animals. What folks like Irwin and Corwin have done in terms of animal conservation, Jenkins (and others) are doing in terms of children's books about animals. This is a must have. You will enjoy it!

Love this book!!
We read this book again and again - it's been a favorite in our family for years.
