Lions And Tigers And Bears And More! Animal Stories
There’s nothing more exciting or fulfilling than sitting down with small children and reading them stories about lions, tigers, bears, or other animals. What fun it is to give them a mental image of an animal, such as the lion, as you read about his magnificent strength to climb a rocky mountain or trees, and yet in his great strength and size, he is able to sneak quietly upon his prey.
Think of the attention getting possibilities as you pull out a book about tigers. Imagine their imaginations running wild as they hear about a tiger being a member of the cat family, but prefers a large animal for his meal, rather than being fed milk in a bowl, as with a kitten. Imagine the picture that crosses a child’s mind as the book about tigers unfolds the idea that tigers love to play hide and seek, his magnificent fur colors adapting him to his surroundings, making it hard to find him.
Animal stories about bears can certainly capture the attention of children. How exciting to hear they can sleep all through the winter months, without getting up to eat breakfast, lunch, or dinner. Do bears really make good pets?
