Cuddly, cute and curious. These four baby animals love to play, dance and learn new words together.

I received a free copy of the book through the Goodreads Giveaways program and voluntarily chose to review.

For the animals of Doe's Circus, life is hard. At the mercy of the ringmaster and his tyrannical gang of showmen, the petting zoo animals long to escape.

Written from the perspective of the animals, the story takes you through how they react to the abuse they suffer, their determination to survive, and their plan to escape.

With superb characterization, the story is well written. It's dark and suspenseful with a surprise ending that left somewhat disappointed and slightly traumatized.

I'm on level 24 now and I absolutely enjoy this game and all the animals, new ones become available each level which is fun. I was worried I'd start playing and then not be able to get very far without spending real money on in-app purchases but it's really easy to gain coins and tickets. I wish that in addition to new animals there were new places on the map unlocked after certain levels or that locations switched the way animals do? Sometimes the animals say the same thing over and over or repeat the dialogue others use which can get sort of monotonous but it's still a lot of fun. I think more friends that played would make it more fun for me personally but even so I really enjoy it.

Animal Planet Farm Animals by Animal Planet is a book that the whole family can read and enjoy. It is informative but the pictures are what really draws the child in to the book. Through reading this book the reader will learn about all sorts of farm animals from around the world.

The information is just perfect of a child to enjoy the facts without being overwhelmed. In fact, the facts draw any reader, even reluctant readers into the information. The pictures are high quality with bright and vibrant colors. Both the information and the pictures have a wonderful balance that make the book interesting and enjoyable.

The book describes many aspects of Farm Life in an enjoyable and interesting way. This isa great addition to a school library or home library for kids to learn about farm animals, life on the farm, and showing animals at the fair (the list could go on). Through reading, the reader learns about habitats, adaptation, and family life for animals.

I really like the special sections that included unique animal facts, kids-friendly infographics and the illustrated map of the earth to teach where the animals lives in the world. This book will allow for further discussion and research since it gets the student excited about animals where they want to know more.

I would love to have this book in my classroom library.

I received this book from the publisher via NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

What an interesting documentary. It's amazing how we begin to care so much for the animals and the creatures around us. I really enjoyed this documentary.

""Ernest Thompson Seton was a ranger on the Canadian Prairie and a very competent artist. He drew lots of illustrations of these animals that he knew and there were also – along the outer margins of the text – there were footprints, so you could imagine yourself tracking these things. And the animals were personified to the extent that I could give you their names now.""
