Summary: great book for elementary school students!
Comment: I've used this book with first and third grade students that are studying needs of animals and animal homes. The students love the predictability of the hermit crab's sounds. It opens up the discussion to habitats and why animals need certain characteristics in their homes. Great book!
Rating: 5
Summary: A beautifully illustrated book
Comment: This is not only an amazingly well-written book, it also has some of the most beautiful illustrations around! Is This a House for Hermit Crab? has a repeating text that kids will soon love to say along with you. McDonald's use of onomatopia is a chance to teach children about figurative language. The repeating words "scritch-scratch" are used to describe the hermit crab crawling along the shore. You can call children's attention to these words by having them scratch a stick arcoss a small strip of sandpaper as these words are read aloud. This book became a read-aloud favorite in my classroom. Another great hermit crab book is Moving Day by Robert Kalan, also available at amazon.com.

Summary: A special book for hermit crab lovers.
Comment: I think children can feel the feelings of finding a new home, too, when they are reading IS THIS A HOUSE FOR HERMIT CRAB. Another book on hermit crabs with a little different twist is P. HERMIT CLAIMS A CASTLE (also available on amazon.com) in which this hermit crab, Prince Hermit, has the challenge of getting back to his natural habitat after he has been taken out of the tidepool. The environmental message that a marine creature's survival depends on his staying in his habitat makes this book important to children who don't know this and to the hermit crab fans of IS THERE A HOUSE FOR HERMIT CRAB who would like more books to read on this subject.
