Review: "My Big Tree" by Maria Ashworth

We liked My Big Tree story quite a bit. Our 20 month old son is a huge fan of animals (has many books, games, etc. with animals), so this book was perfect for him.  He was more into the animals since he is still learning to count. We have a family dog that our son loves. So the dog on the pages was a distraction (though many things are for our son) but he was a welcomed distraction. I thought the illustrations were terrific. They were clear, simple and helped tell the story. This book is appropriate for a child who is learning to count and in the early stages of learning about animals and family interactions. Many of the children’s stories are focused more on teaching academics than providing a good wholesome message about friends and family. I found My Big Tree to be able to do both quite seamlessly. Though we tend to read mostly Dr. Seuss books I’d still like to read more books like My Big Tree. I’d definitely buy and recommend more books from this children’s author.
