REVIEW: Is This a Tiger? by Elina Ellis

[I received a free electronic review copy of this book from Netgalley and Kids Can Press in exchange for an honest review. All opinions are my own.]

Summary and Review


Alex (from Have You Seen an Elephant?) and Atticus set out to find a real tiger, while Alex uses her field guide to help.

This was such an informative book! I learned several things about tigers I didn’t know before – like their stripes are on their SKIN, they are nocturnal, and there are three species that have gone extinct.

This would be an excellent addition to classroom, public, and home library nonfiction collections. Fans of Alex’s first book should definitely pick up this great sequel. I could see a classroom project of making a field guide for an animal studies unit with these books as mentor texts. Brilliant! I can’t wait to see what Alex explores next.
