Personal Reaction: This book presents simple text to understand. This would be a great book to read to young children to teach them the animals opposites. The Wet and Dry book uses full color photographs and a nonfiction format to introduce children to the concepts of wet and dry. The striking photographs and fun facts highlight traits of various animals and bring opposite concepts to life.

1. The students will do a matching worksheet that matches the picture of a certain animal to the word wet or dry.
2. The students will draw a picture of any animal in their journals and describe whether the animal lives on dry land or in a wet place.
