Each text page is coupled with a whole page photograph.
My eight year old learned about the index in this book and how sometimes the only reason the page number is indicated for a word is that only that word is written on the page (He was trying to find out which pages share what they eat and he looked under "food". He could not find out what they ate on those pages--the pages just had the word "food" mentioned in the sentence. He had to look under the word "eating" to discover what they eat.) Great teaching moment!!
