A young boy and girl explore a park in which chick­ens, owls, par­rots, leop­ards, giraffes, tur­tles and a cow roam free. Each ani­mal is sup­posed to teach Jew­ish midos (traits) and avo­das Hashem (wor­ship of G‑d). For exam­ple, we learn how to be calm from cows, ​“because they give and give,” an ant teach­es chil­dren to try and try, and frogs give thanks to Hashem by croak­ing rib­bit, rib­bit. From trees we learn how to treat guests, since trees give us free juice and food. The text is unin­ter­est­ing and does not make sense in some places. Pat­ti Argoff’s attrac­tive illus­tra­tions of con­tin­u­ous­ly smil­ing chil­dren and ani­mals are well drawn and col­or­ful, although not very com­pelling. Ages 3 – 5.
