Push and Pull (Science Emergent Readers) por Susan Canizares

Thanks to this book, I now know about the rainforest AND colo(u)rs!
#1543 in our old book database.
It seems like a straightforward topic for an educational book for toddlers, but it was frustrating to realize how hard it is to guess the answer before turning the page because most times there are multiple acceptable answers that are ignored for the arbitrary one the author has selected.
For instance we're told a car parks "In a garage." This ignores people who don't have a garage at their home and might use public parking garages, parking lots, parking spaces on streets, etc. It also ignores the many places a person may park their car during a day of work or errands.
And just when I think maybe the author is ignoring places where vehicles may only be parked for short periods of time -- like school buses don't park at schools because they spend the night in bus yards -- we are presented with semis parked at truck stops, which are just big gas stations essentially, not the fleet centers of the corporate owners or the residences of independent owner/operators.
Seems like you'd spend a lot of time having to correct or expand on this book with any child you read it to.… (mais)
