Great for the youngest animal lovers J.Prather Lots of Spots is a superb collection of animals that young ones will enjoy paging through time and again. The 50 plus mammals, birds, fish and reptiles are all rendered in the artists signature collage style and seem to actually leap off the page. The rhymes range from the whimsical to the informative and back again, providing a nice accompaniment to each illustration.While this is a great book for a preschooler to sit down and share with mom and dad, I wish that each page would have been less cr. Bob Walch said Wait to use this wonderful board book with older children.. Sometimes we are inclined to use a board book too early with a child. This may be such an instance.

It is very creative and funny and would hold any child's attention. It is so much fun to read outloud.

From School Library Journal K-Gr 2–In keeping with her traditional bold, collage illustrations, Ehlert portrays an array of animals with spots and stripes. .
