A perfect book for intrepid young naturalists, this level 1 Hello Reader! introduces young children to the tracks that different animals leave in the snow as they hurry to their homes. Children first see the tracks and then follow the footprints into the homes of animals such as a deer, an owl, and a bear — as well as a little girl.

This early reader book is great for 1st level readers! It has realistic painted illustrations and there are very few words that tell a story. The text is very brief and the vocabulary is not hard to pronounce for 1st level readers. It is easy for kids that are starting to read! This book is cute for readers that are just starting to learn because it uses different vocabulary words according to which animal. For example, if it starts talking about a rabbit, the author uses vocabulary words such as hop, instead of go. A teacher might use this book as a great starter book for readers. It can also be a great vocabulary lesson, this book. Similar words that mean the same as go such as: hop, walk, and flew. ( )

This book is predictable book. It is about animals in the forest and how they move home. Each animal has a different way that they move. I would maybe use this in like a 4-k or pre-k classroom because it shows the basics of different animals and their movements but it would be a boring book for anyone older than 5 years old. The illustrations were good though. They were very detailed and looked very real which I feel would captured the reader’s attention. I give this a two star. ( )
