librarianlizreads's review against another edition
3.0
Please note that this review is written for my use as a librarian and may not appeal directly to readers. Please review at your own risk.
Accelerated Reader has this book listed as being for lower grades, or readers in Kindergarten to 3rd grade. They also have listed that this read is worth 0.5 AR points.
Warning: I am extremely biased here. The moose is my favorite animal. I thought this was so cute! It’s a grand adventure to find a Moose that takes the children through all types of habitats. Just adorable.
Caution Notes*:
None
Recommended for:
Kids who love animals, the outdoors, and adventures.
Summary:
-Do not read past this point if you would like to avoid spoilers-
Four kids go on an adventure to find and see a Moose. They look all over and can’t find one, until the moose decide to reveal themselves to the kids.
*Caution notes are not to say, don’t read the book. I only include these so that those individuals who have particular themes they do not like to read about or are not ready for their kids to read about are aware. I do not support censoring. :)

Fun going-on-a-hike story about a bunch of kids looking for moose. Full of toddler-friendly sounds, actions descriptions.

I really enjoyed the rhythm and cadence of this fun little picture book about a group of kids who hope to find a moose.

A great example of phonological awareness- full of alliteration and tons of fun sounds to make. One of the best picture books I've come across in a while. Keep your eyes open for hints of moose on many of the pages.

Great story with really fun illustrations. Randy Cecil is quickly becoming one of my favorite illustrators.

This is a fun book to read. Lots of alliteration and rhyming. Also there are lots of things to point out on each page (animals etc) as well as some well hidden moose to find. Good read for F (24 months)

Lots of onomatopoeia and fun repetition in this story of 4 children looking everywhere for a moose. Be sure to look closely at the illustrations as a few of them show moose hiding in the background. Humorous with lots of opportunity for interaction, this is a great group read aloud!

Another fun read aloud with 3, 4, 5 year olds- set them up to look for parts of the moose, had them put a finger on their nose when they found it (rather than calling out). With even younger groups, would be great for rhyming and movement (as you tromp through the bushes, wade through the swamp).
