From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Grade 2-This lively dance-along song and storybook complement each other perfectly. Debbie Harter's book allows children to guess which Indian jungle animal will appear next, and the lyrics (written by Stella Blackstone) encourage them to participate in the movement story. The CD is sung by popular children's performer Fred Penner, who has recorded one vocal version of the song. This is followed by an instrumental version which includes appropriate animal sounds throughout the score. The recording is faithful to the rhyming text of the book, making it a good musical read-aloud for story hours and animal study units. The colorful watercolor, crayon, and pen illustrations fill the large format book, further adding to its usefulness with groups of youngsters. The boys and girls depicted in the story, one on each page discovering the featured animal, are ethnically diverse and include some with disabilities. Don't hesitate to add this to your collection of children's audio materials.
