[Following is an official OnlineBookClub.org review of "Rudi Caribou" by Donald Burton Smith.]

Rudi Caribou, written by D. Burton Smith, is an educational book for children. Rudi shares with the reader the difficulties a young caribou might face and how caribou manage to migrate more than a thousand miles every year.

My first impression of this book was that the Caribou on the cover was an actual animal, but as I read it, I realized that the illustrations were very well done and fooled me. I spent a lot of time looking at the pictures because they were so much better than realistic caribou pictures, and I think a child will feel the same way about them that I did. This book provides a wealth of information about caribou, including the predators they face, the routes they take during migration, and much more. The book also includes a map of where you might find caribous.

The way the author used a calf caribou was a great way to introduce the reader to the species. The fact that the narrator, who is a caribou, was given a name was a nice touch, too. The illustrations were one of the best parts of this book and deserve all the praise. We don't have caribou where I come from, so I've always found them to be mysterious and fascinating. Some of the caribou's characteristics surprised even me, but I won't reveal them here so that readers can discover them through the book. I also loved that this book was educational.

There was not a single thing about this book that I did not enjoy. I give this book a perfect score of 5 out of 5 stars because it is not only informative but also educational, and it is sure to capture the attention of all children. The editing appears to be spotless; I found no mistakes.

I think it's important for all kids to learn about this magnificent creature, and this book is a great way to do so. The illustrations are also outstanding, so the kids will have a good time admiring them.

Kids will love this. I like the way it is educational, great picture display, and exciting. Likewise, I love to know what characteristics a caribou has and share them with my kids. Yet, you seem to have enjoyed this book; therefore, we will. Spectacular review worthy of admiration!

I absolutely adore kids' books that are able to entertain and educate all at the same time. Any kid reading about caribous from this wonderfully written book is sure to have a lot to tell his friends about. I loved your review. It expressed your unbiased approval of the author's work. Well done!

An educational books with pictures is always more engaging than just loads of information conveyed in a dry manner. Nice review! This appears to be a book that kids will love reading through and learn too.

I can’t imagine the fascination of seeing these creatures in person. I love the feeling in your heart when you're in the presence of majestic creatures as the caribous. Not to mention I am always a fan of educational books that you learn something new. Thank you for writing another fascinating review, Christell!

kids book with nice illustrations young caribou faces the challenge of growing up and embarking on an epic jouney across tundra rivers ,,i will recommend it

It is a story about courage, perseverance, and the importance of following your dreams. The story is also educational, as it teaches children about the life of a caribou and the challenges they face.

I think that this is a good idea for children. I am ashamed to admit that I didn’t know caribou were a real thing until one of my best friends moved to Delaware/Maine with her husband after high school. I thought it was just another name for elk. Rudi will help to keep kids interested, too. Congratulations on BOTD!

I'm intrigued by the captivating illustrations and the promise of surprising caribou characteristics and the creature's migration route in this flawlessly written book by D. Burton Smith with illustrations by Paul Hock.

Christell, your review is great and I fully agree on all points. I read this book to the end because it is so short and because I could not stop admiring the illustrations, like you . I agree that the illustrations are outstanding, the book is educational, and it deserves a perfect score you awarded it.

It seems like you are not only captures the imagination with its captivating illustrations but also provides valuable information about caribou in an engaging way. The combination of educational content, well-crafted storytelling, and impressive illustrations seems to make it a standout book for children. The fact that it managed to surprise you with some of the caribou's characteristics is an added bonus. It's always great to hear about books that successfully blend entertainment and education.

Congrats on BOTD!
For kids, I believe this to be a great idea. I regret to inform you that until one of my closest friends and her spouse relocated to Delaware or Maine after high school, I was unaware that caribou actually existed. I mistook it for just another term for elk. Rudi will also contribute to the kids' continued interest.

Caribous? This children's book looks to have a wealth of knowledge on this animal. But was it really not an animal that the book talked about? I hope to find out. I also look forward to viewing the well-drawn illustrations.

Gorgeous illustrations. If there were little ones in my life at the moment, I'd grab a hardcopy for them this holiday season.
