This is a great teaching book by itself, but it follows easier if you've read the prior book so your child already understands a reference to a previous animal and how maps are shown. Preschoolers will enjoy pictures and are more likely to remember some animals from this book (like how jellyfish look in real life compared to jellyfish on "Spongebob"), but older children are more likely to appreciate the book. It allows them to read on an age-appropriate level while introducing new animals and introduces facts they are more likely to remember. For instance, children are familiar with milk, so they will probably remember what a milk frog is or why it's called a milk frog. This is a great addition to a science lesson.
