Book Reviews of Penguin (See How They Grow)

Book Review: False information on hatching
Summary: 1 Stars

I was at first glance very impressed and about to order this book due to the photos. However, the "inside pages" tells something to the effect of "my mommy just laid me and will take care of me until I hatch." This is incorrect information, especially in relation to Emperor Penguins. The daddy is who "as soon as the egg is laid the scoops it up from the female. He places it on top of his feet and covers it with a thick warm fold of belly skin, which is rich is richly endowed with blood vessels."

My kindergarten students love to learn about penguins and normally I really like the DK books for their realism. However this is one book I won't purchase now due to false information.

Summary of Penguin (See How They Grow)

A photographic paperback series designed to introduce the fascinating world of animals and how they develop. Appealing step-by-step photography allows children to see a butterfly emerge from its cocoon and spread its wings, or see what happens when an egg hatches and a chick emerges. Each book comes with a sticker sheet packed with cute images of the animals featured in the book.

See How They Grow: Penguin follows a penguin on its path from egg to adult
