Items related to Animals Work
Animals herd, carry, pull, and even . . . keep us company! This nonfiction, easy-to-read picture book transports readers from an open field to a desert to a snowy tundra as animals of all kinds perform some very important work. The book ends with an endearing role reversal as a young boy gives milk to his cat, reminding readers that just as animals help people, people in turn can help animals. This book teaches readers about the variety of work animals and depicts the give-and-take of human/animal relationships. A map is included. Guided Reading Level C.

About the Author:
Ted Lewin's career as an artist began with illustrations for adventure magazines, but over the last thirty-five years he has devoted all his time to writing and illustrating children's books, including Peppe the Lamplighter, which won a Caldecott Honor. Many of his books are inspired by his travels around the world. He lives in Brooklyn, New York.
Review:
"A refreshing change from the cartoonlike pictures in most books for beginning readers, Lewin's well-composed naturalistic illustrations have their own appeal . . . A handsome animal book for young readers."—Booklist
"Lewin masterfully combines realism with child appeal in his expressive watercolors. His short, declarative sentences with repeating verbs will encourage emerging readers. . . . Inviting."—Kirkus Reviews
"The watercolor illustrations of the various locations and the people that inhabit them are stunningly lifelike, and a world map on the final spread shows where Lewin saw the animals. Easy enough for the very earliest readers."—School Library Journal
