What came first, the egg or the chicken? This children's picture book explores the order of nature and things in life. Every other page has a little hole in it where the children can see some of the color from the other page. It is a unique way of showing how each thing is connected. The illustrations are beautiful paintings of each subject. Any young child would love this book because of its simplicity and color. A great teaching tip for this book would be to have the kids write and illustrate their own what came first book. The book could be over something they are learning like animals, buildings, or anything else.
