Evoking the tune for the famous "The 12 Days of Christmas" holiday song, Alaska's 12 Days of Summer was a pleasure to read. The illustrations took up much of each page, with small print placed along the bottom or sides about each animal featured- from brown bears, to mosquitoes, to salmon. I do wish the print was bigger. I struggled to read it at times, and I know a child may too just as easily. I learned a lot about each animal and enjoyed trying to find each one in the illustrations as the number of animals grew. This is a great counting book because it exceeds the number ten and continues all the way to twelve, posing an extra challenge to early readers. Both authors are from Alaska, which made this story feel more authentic. At the end of the story, the authors included the tune of the song along with the lyrics, so young readers can sing the song all the way through after reading.

In this take on "The 12 Days of Christmas", children will learn about the animal population of Alaska, and how they enjoy the short summer break that comes to the state. Underneath the song lyrics are helpful facts about the animals being shown.

This is a good book to teach kids about the animals that live in Alaska and is also a good book to teach kids how to count. It is a book kind of like the 12 days of christmas, but with animals in the summer.
