"Take Me Home: Waters of the World is a delightfully entertaining and informative compendium facts about bodies of water from around the globe, pointing out the animals and plants found in them, as well as the unique features and inner workings of these environments ranging from polar waters to the Amazon river -- and finding out which one is the right one for each of them, as well as what happens after they reach their final destination!" ―Midwest Book Review

"This book was greatly enjoyable. The illustrations were colorful and adorable in depicting the wildlife. The narration was for older elementary, but I think younger children could also learn and be entertained by the content within the book. It's a great introduction into conservation, helping the environment, and learning about the world. I would greatly look forward to other selections by this author and illustrator! I will recommend this to my coworkers at our library!" ―Jordan Gray, Librarian

"The book is written in a way that is part story, with characters showing the reader around, and part facts with fun details about animals, waters, and plants throughout. There is a lot to learn in these intriguing and easily digestible facts found on every page. There is so much to learn in this book, and I loved all the cool facts included throughout. The book encompasses a lot of information about oceans, lakes, and rivers, with information about the waters themselves, such as the layers, and about the animals and plants that live within them. The presentation of these is particularly approachable with adorable fictional characters leading the readers to the information. The illustrations are fantastic throughout with a light cartoonish element that will appeal to young readers and so many cool details on each page. Together with the text, there is so much to learn! Animals and information come to life through the images. The font is really easy to read throughout, and I appreciated that animals are labeled where they are pictured, whether or not they are accompanied by fun facts. The pages themselves are very durable as a light board book format that would make this a great book for classrooms and for sharing. This book would be a great start to learning about bodies of water and the many things that live there- perfect for children who love learning cool facts! With an engaging presentation and detailed illustrations, TAKE ME HOME: WATERS OF THE WORLD is a great choice to learn fun facts and as a springboard to studying oceans, lakes, and rivers and the creatures who live within them. Highly recommend for classrooms, libraries, and for budding ocean enthusiasts!" ―YA Books Central

"Journey with Annie as she explores the waters of the world in this sturdy oversized board book with some aquatic animals she found washed up on the beach. Along the way, we learn about each of these aquatic environments, and travel the globe. Take Me Home: Waters of the World is packed with great information presented in an accessible way to preschool-elementary aged kids." ―Kids Read the World

"An informative book incorporated within a story. We not only learn more about the locations but also the animals that live there. There are so many kinds of habitats out there which makes this book a good intro for children. The illustrations are cute to look ate but perhaps the guidance of an adult can be there to explore each page in depth." ―Sally Xiong, Blogger
