The illustrations in this were amazing. Bright, colorful, and textured, with the animals hidden so well. After a page with the animals camoflaged, there is a page with the animals isolated to show how they hide. The text was not special, but good expository writing.

I really want to do this book when we are not so virtual.....because this would be an excellent seek and find read. It will not translate well over screen so I will pass for now. =)
This is another one of my favorite offerings by Steve Jenkins. I do think they keep getting better and better!

Genre: Informational Nonfiction
Grade: 1-4
I was pleasantly surprised at the amount of information and animals that were included in this book. The illustrations were really well done and I discovered a lot of different ways that the authors included information. It was also interactive with the pictures of camouflage that you could find the animals in. Overall, it was well written and a perfect nonfiction book for an elementary audience.

Steven Jenkins and Robin Page hit it out of the park again in this book about animal camouflage. There will be a two-page spread describing the type of environment some animals might hide in, with cut-paper illustrations of a hidden animal. The following two-page spread will show the animal, identify where it is in the picture, and give a little bit of information. There is also usually a scale illustration, but there isn’t an indication of whether it is to scale of an adult or child. Full body shots appear to be adults, but the hand shots seem to be ambiguous. The end of the book gives more information about each animal.
Patrons who love animal books or cut-paper illustrations will love this title. Best for ages 6-10.

“Is that a bunch of dead leaves? No — it’s a satanic leaf gecko, a master of disguise.”

Childrens non-fiction. [a:Steve Jenkins|27541|Steve Jenkins|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1365481570p2/27541.jpg]Steve Jenkins always has books that are fascinating to read and look at. The information about various animals is unusual and engaging. The illustrations, by Jenkins and his wife [a:Robin Page|129085|Robin Page|https://s.gr-assets.com/assets/nophoto/user/u_50x66-632230dc9882b4352d753eedf9396530.png] are paper collage on a digitally created background. This book focuses on animal camouflage. It discusses animals in various types of habitats, shows them in their background, and then on the next page pulls the animal out of the background and gives more information. This book is not necessarily one to read aloud but one to pore over in a smaller group, where everybody can try to find the hidden animals and marvel at their camouflage skills.
