Things You Might See on an African Safari: A Counting Journey Through Africa and Things You Might See Swimming Under The Sea






Animals begin to stir, slowly rising with the sun.
Tourists hop into a bus, and set off for some fun.
"We are off on safari; can you guess what we will see?"

Learn to count and meet all kinds of interesting animals on an exciting safari through Africa. This is a fixed layout eBook and displays the same as a print book.This book has a target age group of 4-6.

Includes interesting animal facts and counting from 1 to 10 in is Zulu the language of the Zulu people in South Africa





My thoughts:

What a cute book  It begins with taking us on a bus to go through the safari.

As you travel through the safari, you will see colorful animals on the left side and on the right side is the number and some rhyming sentences about the animals. The number of animals on the left match the number on the right.    This book teaches children to count from one to ten.

My seven year old son loved this book.  He enjoyed reading the African animal facts at the end of this book, as much as he liked to try and count from one to ten in isiZulu, which is the language in South Africa of the Zulu people.  It was funny listening to him really trying his hardest to pronounce each number.  And he was laughing at me as I tried to pronounce them as well.

A great book to have in any young ones library.  Although as an adult I to learned some interested facts about these animals that I didn't know.


"We are going for a swim in the sea can you guess what we will see?" Learn to recognize colours and meet all kinds of interesting marine animals on an exciting underwater adventure.
This book includes a fun marine facts activity at the end.





My thoughts:

Great book!

As you begin to read about under the sea, on the left side is a colorful picture of a yellow sea horse, a black and white orca whale, or even a brown ship, plus much more.  And on the right side is the Color word and a couple rhyming sentences about the illustrated picture. 

This is good book to help teach children their colors.  At the end of the book, the author has added some interesting facts about what you read in the books with a couple added interesting facts.

My seven year old and I have read this book a few times already, and plan to read it again.
