Would You Rather Be a Pollywog? All About Pond Life (The Cat in the Hat's Learning Library)

This is a really good resource for a science lesson (most of this series works for that). The fun rhymes help the info stick in kids heads.

You really cant go wrong with any of these Cat in the Hat books, they are such great books for kids. This book, "Would You Rather Be a Pollywog: All About Pond Life" from Cat in the Hat's Learning Library is a bit long for a bedtime story, but still a great read. My 3 year old really enjoyed it, and asked a lot of questions. I like how it covered not only the fish, and frogs from a pond, but also insects and animals and even plants around the pond too! Very cute book. I received this product at a discounted rate in exchange for an honest review.Thanks <3

This book was perfect for our unit on ponds. Our kids love reading these Cat in the Hat science books. They learned so much.

I've been collecting and reading all of the new Dr. Suess Knows A Lot About that series. They are fun to read and my 4 year old is learning some really involved things about stuff you would not think to take the effort to teach them about. For instance in this book, water striders, bugs that breathe from air bubbles, and algae. The great thing is that the sentences are easy enough that I bet he reads the book to me before he is 6. He already has the words memorized from me reading it over and over that he can complete my sentences - so I know he's listening and absorbing the info. He even points to the pictures to tell me what he knows about the insect/animal before I read the page. Great series of books!

This series is wonderful. They are rhyming like the other books, but they are full of interesting information about whatever subject they writing about. My daughter who is 9 loves these books. I think we have maybe six of the series so far. They are educational, but written in a fun way as not to be boring.

Bought this book for our 18 month old son as we live on a small lake. While not a pond (as in the book), I figured it would still be a good reading resource to learn about water animals, insects, etc. Like most children, our son loves Dr. Suess and we watch the PBS The Cat in The Hat so he is well familiar with The Cat. I admit this book may be a little too mature for our 18 month old to fully grasp all of the details BUT it's never too early to start learning, right?? He actually enjoyed the pictures and even picked out the "frog", "duck", etc while I read the book to him for the 1st time. I can see this book being read many many MANY times in the future! Can't wait to look into getting more books from this series.

I bought this book for son for his second birthday. I liked how it explained everything but it didn't hold my two year old interest like other cat in the hat books have. We will keep it and add it to my son's library of books, but it will not be our favorite.

No matter how gifted they are at age 4, they still like to keep it fun and silly. This book fits in with our science curriculum and keeps it fun and silly too. :) In fact the whole series has been a real blessing when it comes to keeping science fun. These books follow along nicely with the national science curriculum.

All the cat in the hat series are osm...you never go wrong ...must buy

great kids book
