Where Do Animals Go For Vacation?, by Steve A. Erickson, is a delightful and imaginative book that promises to engage young readers with its whimsical premise. The book explores a playful question: If animals could take vacations, where would they go, and what would they do? Erickson takes readers on a humorous journey, showcasing various animals indulging in leisure time activities.

The narrative is filled with creative scenarios, such as a beaver swapping its construction endeavors for Lego-building, and an ostrich enjoying hang gliding. This approach not only entertains but also has the potential to ignite fun discussions between children and adults. The book’s illustrations are another highlight, characterized by their vibrant and eye-catching nature, making them a talking point in their own right. What I found particularly enjoyable was the way Erickson connects each animal’s natural behavior to their chosen vacation activities, adding an educational layer to the humor. This book was a surprising read in the best way and is a worthy addition to any young reader’s library.

Where Do Animals Go For Vacation? is an inventive and engaging book that strikes a perfect balance between learning and entertainment. Erickson’s unique take on animals’ vacation activities, coupled with the vivid illustrations, not only captivates but also educates young readers. It’s a book that can easily become a favorite for bedtime stories or classroom reading, sparking imagination and curiosity in children. Whether read alone or shared between adults and kids, this book is a charming addition to any young reader’s collection.
