Review
by Denise Weir. CM, Volume IX Number 17, April 25, 2003
Gentle and lyrical, this picture book will be enjoyed by young
children. Through rhyming text and sweet illustrations, we experience
the special relationship between a child and her animals.- The
Council Connector Newsletter (Council of Parent Participation
Preschools in B.C.) April 2003
"In "My Animal Friends", young readers are invited
to sing along and match the animals with the sound they make.
Written by R. David Stephens and published by Tradewind Books,
this book will appeal to young animal lovers and teaches a healthy
respect for all living things." - Liam O'Donnell,Canadian
Bookseller September/October 2002
"A simple lovely song accompanied by friendly illustrations
produce a book that reinforces the concept of respect for all
living things. It will be enjoyed by the whole family." -
