From School Library Journal:
PreSchool-Grade 3–A story set in a South American tropical rain forest. Awakened by a falling raindrop, Little Tapir is invited by Spider to explore. As he follows the arachnid, leaving his sleeping mother behind, he begins to hear the jungle's song "in the beat of his feet." Here, the narrative switches to pulsing verses: "Deep in the jungle where cathedral trees/Rise like pillars with flickering leaves./From the break of day in the cool half-light,/The jungle sings all through the night." Rich, vibrant watercolors will captivate readers and draw them deeper into the forest with the little animal. The intoxicating song takes Little Tapir further and further away from his mother, until the beat suddenly stops at nightfall. When he realizes that he is lost, his happy mood is replaced by feelings of loneliness and fear. At this moment, his mother appears, relieved to find him safe. Together, they walk into the undergrowth, as the jungle song starts again. This endearing story captures the innocence of a child's spontaneous curiosity, and the rhythm of the language makes it a great read-aloud. A note provides a few facts about tropical rain forests.–Tracy Bell, Durham Public Schools, NC
