This is a nice book. It teaches the boys that a "home" can be various things for different creatures. Easy read with rhyming so Nikki enjoys reading this.
I noticed that Ethan is very fond of bugs so I got him this book. Although he cannot read yet, I thought it would be nice for him to see the different kinds of insects. True enough, he flipped through the pages and exclaimed at the bugs that he already knew. Nikki and I just read the captions of the photos so he would ba familiar with the other insects not commonly seen here.
This one is an easy book for Nikki. But I bought it because of the lesson. It's the story of a dog who did not want to get a haircut because he thought he looked "funny" after he did. He became too self-conscious and did not want to meet his friends because "they are going to laugh". But he decided to sport a "cool" look and his dog friends loved it. In the end, the dog loved his new haircut. Teaches a lot about self-image.
Coincidentally, my sis bought this book for Nikki. So now, Nikki has another "hair book". We can never go wrong with a Seuss book. =D
