Early Book Review: Animal Habitats: Search and Find by Sarah Dennis and Sam Hutchinson

Animal Habitats: Search and Find by Sarah Dennis and Sam Hutchinson is currently scheduled for release on August 27 2019. This book can introduce young nature lovers to the wonders of ecology as they explore the earth's most amazing and unusual regions--colorful coral reefs, frozen polar seas, dense, leafy rain forests, and more--and meet the unique animals that call them home. In a world filled with marvelous creatures great and small, astounding discoveries can be found in Sarah Dennis's enchanting, intricate cut-paper illustrations. Readers learn how food webs sustain incredible birds, beasts, fishes, and insects and the ingenious ways that plants and animals adapt to the varied ecosystems of our diverse planet. 
Animal Habitats: Search and Find gives young readers a good understanding of the food chain and web ideas, and how they relate to specific animal habitats. The text is accessible, and the illustrations by Sarah Dennis are well done- adding a great deal to the understanding of the information. I have to admit that I was hoping for more, some additional seek and finds or more complex versions, but that it my personal preference. I will admit there were some viewing issues with the digital galley I was reading through Netgalley, so maybe I missed something along the way- although the page count did match up. This book is good for what it is, but I was hoping it would be so much more than good.
