First 100 Animals

Small children? Your child will love this book. My child is 5 and he still has it for his obsession for animals. The quality is great and pictures are real. The pages were easy for small hands.

Absolutely love this book! It's so colorful and catches my 15mo's attention when we look at it together. Our pediatrician told us to work on more different words and this book really helps with that task. Highly recommend. Only thing to note is this non is physically bigger than all the others in this series.

Great book for out grandkids

We love the First 100 books — the photos are beautiful and durable (very important in toddler world). But this is a little less engaging for my 15-month-old than the First 100 Words book, which she’s already mastered. For example, there are many different kinds of birds, and to her, they’re all just “bird.” She still enjoys flipping through it, but I think it’ll shine more when she’s closer to 2+.

This is a very bright, vibrant and colorful book throughout. The book board pages are nice and firm. It is well made and I think that it will hold up well. My 2 year old daughter loves it. She is not a very picky reader and will sit down with just about any book. I love that there is a variety of animals for us to review and learn. We took it along with us to a doctor’s appointment as it is the perfect size to fit into a diaper bag or purse. This was my daughter’s first time seeing the book and she was very delighted. Many exotic animals, some that I am learning myself! My 4 year old son was also entertained by it. He is a very picky reader, but I believe the animals were interesting enough to catch his attention. Although he liked the book, he wasn’t too happy to find a picture of a spider inside. Will purchase more of these as gifts in the future. This book is perfect for baby showers, birthdays and Christmas. I would recommend for ages 0-6 years old. I am also very happy with the price, super affordable and excellent quality.

Bought this book and others in the series due to their actual photos of animals rather than artistic stylized drawings, and it's quite good for that. However... There are not actually 100 animals in this book. There are up to 95 depending on whether you count a different variety of animal that's given the same name to be a different animal. The lion, zebra, elephant, penguins, and moth are copied to two different places in the book. Slightly different pictures, same animal. There are three different owls: a barn owl, a horned owl, and a snowy owl, the first two of which are simply labeled "owl". The "birds" page has both a macaw AND a parrot. I wish this page had included some kind of small songbird like a sparrow or a chickadee instead of doubling up like this. There's also an error, the pelican is shown on the "rivers and lakes" page despite being a sea bird. Maybe they were intending to have a heron or egret here? I'm also not sure why the turtle is being called a terrapin. Would have been a good opportunity to compare a turtle and a tortoise but the tortoise is also not in this book. The gosling on the front cover is not actually present inside the book, though it does have ducklings (no adult duck or goose though). It has a foal and a pony, but no horse. And like some other reviewers mentioned, many of the photos are not helpful, being close-up shots of the animal's face rather than a full-body image that would have shown the animal's distinguishing features better. If I didn't know what an ostrich was, seeing a closeup of its ugly face would not help me identify one at the zoo.

We love this book series. They are the perfect size for toddlers and have lots to look at. They are especially great in the car for traveling!

Easy and fun way to teach names of animals. Can be used for bilingual family, too, as toddlers don't read. My little one loves to make the imitative call of each animal and even mimic their movements.

It's a good hard book. For teachin animals for kids, 1-2 or 3 mainly

Good for educational toys

As figuras são em fotos reais, achei lindo o material é excelente, meu filho amou, vive com ele pra todo lado e não tem perigo de desgastar.

My son is quite possibly obsessed with this book! He is a year old and just starting to learn animal names and noises. This book works very much like a set of flash cards and he enjoys pointing to the animals and telling us what they are. I also like that the pictures Re photographs, rather than illustrations - I think it makes it easier for him to recognise them. A very good first book of animals. Oh, and it's pretty indestructible, too!
