MY REVIEW
Do you want to enjoy an entertaining rhyming story with your children or students and learn about marine life?
A young crab gets lost and needs to find the way back home. Children are invited to join the adventure and help the crab back into the sea. Along pages, readers will discover the richness of the ocean: starfish, whales and sea turtles. The rhyming text and the 'clickity clack' add a musical touch to the story, inviting readers not only to move but to discover sounds from the ocean. The illustrations display marine life in a simple, gentle and very colorful way, which will delight very young children.
The fun facts in the back matter can make a biology class a very entertaining and fun one.
Rescue Clickity Clack offers teachers, parents or caretakers the opportunity to turn the story into more than simple reading time.
A story for little curious minds who love the sea -or may love it after reading Rescue Clickity Clack!
