Book Synopsis"Van Lindenhuizen's winning critters on spare backgrounds pose with gentle friendliness." - School Library Journal Welcome to Animal Square where all the animals live and play together. Kitty, Mouse, Monkey, Giraffe, Rabbit, and Dog are six very best friends. They each live in their own little home and do lots of things together. Animal Square is a place full of friendship, happiness, and caring. Come join in the fun!
Giraffe wants to play on the seesaw. But you can’t play on a seesaw by yourself. Luckily, he sees Mouse. But Mouse is too little to play on the seesaw with Giraffe, and so are Dog and Monkey. Is there really no one with whom Giraffe can play on the seesaw?
A satisfying first story about being cooperation and teamwork. For toddlers ages 30 months and up, with a focus on the child’s social skills.
At Clavis, our focus is on what’s best for children. We believe that books play an important role in each new phase in life. Our toddler books are tailored for every stage from 0 to 3 and focus on the five most important themes in their life: daily life, skills, emotions, the world, and language development. The age range and theme of every book in our toddler series can be found on the back cover in the form of a colored train.
Trade Review “These stories feature Kitty, Monkey, Mouse, Giraffe, Rabbit, and Dog as they experience everyday events. In Goodbye, Fish, Kitty's friends attempt to get her dead goldfish to respond. When tickling its tummy and making waves in the bowl don't work, Giraffe breaks the bad news. A proper burial is held. After Kitty faithfully waters Fish's grave, since he "didn't like dirt, he liked water," a golden flower appears. Van Lindenhuizen's winning critters on spare backgrounds pose with gentle friendliness.” – School Library Journal
