review 1: Jason Chin has been recommended to me by a lot of our customers so I've been meaning to read his books and finally got around to it. And I am thrilled to have found such a great "new" writer/illustrator.Gravity was my introduction to Jason Chin. His latest is also his shortest- and illustratively his weakest as well- but doesn't diminish how enjoyable and informative it was.Coral Reefs was a wonder of a book. I loved the fantasy element mixed in with all the fascinating facts!Redwoods is another creative non-fiction type of picture book.His storytelling style reminds me a bit of David Weisner's. I will definitely be recommending Jason Chin to others!
review 2: The adult side of my brain knew that I was learning. The child side said, "ooh! look at the pictures!"... more. The pictures and words told different stories. The little girl was reading the same book as me, and she was carried off to a wonderful half real, half make believe sea world. As the author was telling us information about the ocean, and most importantly, coral reefs, the little girl was swimming around them. All I have to say is: I wish all textbooks could be like this. less
