This is a book that I obviously wouldn't normally read, but I ended up doing so through work. The lesson and message are extremely positive, the art well done, and the vocabulary and real-world information will definitely help a child expand their knowledge a bit. This is a book that can definitely lead to a great deal of conversation, and as such serves as a great reading choice with a child when you are looking to be able to discuss what you've read together and the meaning behind it.
