Editorial Review

SLJ Review of How Many Legs?

Cover: How Many Legs?

Critters both cute and creepy fill the pages of these nonfiction books, ideal for animal-loving emerging readers. The ticks and spiders in It Has Eight Legs are far different from the horse and alligator in It Has Four Legs, but with beautiful close-up photographs readers will see that though animals may look very different, they still have much in common. The gorilla and robin in It Has Two Legs are joined by none other than a person—a great reminder that we’re part of this wild kingdom, too. Repetition and picture clues help striving readers decipher the uncommon words, like “crayfish” and “millipede” in It Has Lots of Legs. Each book wraps with a section asking readers “Which animal has [the book’s number of] legs?” followed by a photo set of four different animals, allowing readers to practice the counting concept introduced in the text. VERDICT Not a necessary purchase, but these titles have value in classroom libraries.
