Astro the Alien Visits Polar Animals

I applaud this series, clearly designed to educate small children and elementary age children, entertain, and guide in reading comprehension. Using repetition, with each speaker reiterating plus adding to the information given, children learn about animals, and also caring for animals (protectiveness). The included guide helps parents and teachers to promote both comprehension and understanding reading.

Great illistrations! Wonderful detail and color. The book was easy to follow and the characters like able. Great information about the creatures. Kids will love this book! Would highly recommend!

This is an adorable little series of books that would be invaluable to parents and teachers of children from preschool age to young primary. Bright, vivid images will keep their attention, and the short, simple phrases teach them about life in the Arctic. The reading reinforcements, that includes things like close reading tips, in the back of the book help to solidify what they learn. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to encourage a young child in their early science education.

This is a very enjoyable Astro the Alien title. The illustrations are great. Our boys (2 and 4.5) enjoyed seeing the polar bear and the Arctic hare the most. This is a great series for early readers and helps to build vocabulary and confidence.

I liked this book better than any other in the series I have read so far. We see a lot more of Astro asking what animals are and why they are white etc. Astro really plays a part in this story. One complaint (I’m sorry I can't help it). Astro didn’t know what a Polar Bear was to begin with, so how does he know he needs to change his skip into a boat to see things in/on the water?
