Who Has These Feet?
Laura Hulbert, illus. by Erik Brooks. Holt, $16.99 (42p) ISBN 978-0-8050-8907-3
This guess-the-animal book asks readers to identify species by looking at their feet. Hulbert describes how each animal’s treads are acclimated to its particular environment: a tree frog’s toes are sticky; a squirrel uses the claws on its toes to scamper along trees; and a sea turtle has flippers for swimming. A gatefold features all of the animals together—“Who has these feet? We have these feet!” Brooks’s naturalistic yet affable animals will likely inspire readers to take a closer look at their own feet. Ages 3–7. (Aug.)
