I love this time of year -- not just because it starts to cool off from a hot summer or that the leaves start changing colors -- but, because I get to share a wonderful selection of new book releases for kids and adults as part of my annual "Welcome in Fall with a Good Book Feature." And, this year is gearing up to be a great feature as I am getting so many wonderful books in the mail to review from all the popular children's publisher groups. To kick of my 14th annual book feature, I wanted to share fun magnetic book from Chronicle Books, that is geared towards animal lovers and children ages 3-5 years old. Magnetology Animals, which releases on Sept. 7th, comes with 45 magnetic animal pieces for your kids to use their imaginations and decorate the different scenes -- like the Savanna, the Ice Sheets, the forest and even the Rain Forest.
Even though my girls are older than the recommended age range, they both still enjoyed playing with the book, as they are both huge animal lovers. My oldest, who just turned 11 really enjoyed the book. She loved all the fun facts that are included on each of the play scenes. And, when she wasn't coming up with fun way to position each of the magnetic animal pieces to tell a story, she was trying her hand at drawing each of the animals and adding detailed backgrounds for each, after finding inspiration from the colorful backdrops that fill the pages of this book.
As a parent, I love how there is an envelope built into the book at the front, so that your kids can store the magnetic pieces when not using the book, so that they don't get lost. This comes in handy if you plan to bring this magnetic play book on the go, to help keep your little ones busy and having fun. In addition to this animal magnetic book, the folks at Chronicle Books also offers a Magnetology: Vehicles book for little ones who crazy for all kinds of vehicles.
With the holidays fast approaching this book would make for a great book to leave under the tree for your little one to find and enjoy. This is definitely one of those books that they will enjoy for years to come, and play with time and time again.
