This 6.25″ X 7.25 ” book is for having fun while  searching for jungle animals and plants hidden on darkened transparent plastic with the use of a punch-out  cardboard ‘torch’ [flashlight] found at the back of the book. As a school librarian, I have my doubts as to how long the torch will remain with the book, but have found a simple 1.5 X 7  inch strip of white paper will do the job, or even simply holding the plastic page in front of a window, will work.

I like that the book states, ” “Watch out. You would never see all the animals you will find in this book in one place, because they come from jungles all over the world.”

There are 6 plastic transparent pages on the right hand side for the reader to search for the animals and plants listed and roughly shown in a key on the opposite left hand page. The six transparent pages cover 5 jungle life zones with a sixth one on animal camouflage. The emergent treetop zone has 12 animals, the canopy has 15, the lower branches have 15, the undergrowth has 14, the river has 16, and the camouflage has 11 animals to find.

The book does not provide textual information on the animals to be found.
