Puffin

Puffins Climb, Penguins Rhyme
$6.00
I happen to be a fan of Puffins and Penguins, but I still can't recommend this book except as a "Library Find."

My first complaint with it is the unexciting text**:

Puffins glare,
Penguins stare

And second, I thought the pictures were not all that engaging. Particularly the Penguins, who came across as crabby and ill-tempered.

**Other combinations of rhyme are clean/preen, hide/glide, see/flee. It didn't appeal much to me and the my home-audience just wandered on after a brief look-see.

Considerations:::
I've investigated and found different age recommendations for this book--everything from Preschool to 5th grade. Personally I would go with the younger ranges. While the Accelerated Reading level for the book is a generic "2", there isn't really enough text to be worth reading for older children.

Audubon Garden Flag, Atlantic Puffin
$13.75
Audubon Garden Flag "Atlantic Puffin". John James Audubon's eco flag collection, printed on recycled fabric, made out of recycled plastic bottles.

Atlantic Puffin - Audubon Plush Bird (Authentic Bird Sound)
$8.25
This is really the best, most realistic-looking puffin toy out there. It makes realistic noise (not exactly cute...but realistic) and has the requisite puffin squeezability. He is well-loved in my household.

Puffins (Worldlife Library)
$17.95
This book has beautiful photography. My only "complaint" would be that the cover isn't substantial enough, so it bends and creases.
