 My boys LOVE this book July 16, 2010
April Polo (Miami, FL)
It's fun and educational. My kids have a blast guessing which animal belongs to what tail, nose, etc. Sure to bring lots of giggles while being a covert teaching aide.
 Different approach to animals May 9, 2010
Nitin Gupta (New Delhi, India)
I like the different approach that book gives while introducing kids to "Animals". Instead of introducing Gorilla as an animal it refers to it's feet and how they use it. The collage based images are wonderfully done and the information is amazing.
 Disapppointment February 7, 2010

I don't know why, but my three year old granddaughter does not like this book and refuses it every time it is offered. Any thoughts?

I can easily see why What Do You Do With a Tail Like This? is a Caldecott Honor Book. The cut-paper collage of animals is very artistic, and the way the book is written is very creative. A small portion of five animal parts (either noses, ears, tails, eyes, mouths, or feet) are shown, and you are to guess which animal the part belongs to and how it is used. Even if your children can easily figure out and memorize what they are looking at, I think they can have fun with this book for a long time. There is a good chance that some of the 30 animals in the book will be uncommon to you. Some of the animals found in Jenkins' and Page's book include the African elephant, striped skunk, blue-footed booby and giant anteater. In the back of the book you can find out more interesting facts about the animals. You and your kids will definitely gain from reading this book. I highly recommend it.
