Animals Are Everywhere is one of Erica Irons-Sweigart's many collaborative works between a special education teacher and students with autism. This story is about teaching the numbers ten through twenty as well as prepositions. Each page is a beautiful artistic representation starting with ten creatures in the trees and ending at the number twenty. The artwork and the creative simplicity of storytelling paired with easily recognized animals and popular prepositions or prepositional phrases together make the story highly interesting and relevant to any elementary classroom as a teaching tool. Hopefully readers and teachers will take away the joy of the artistic paintings along with emphasis on the multitude of early learning skills and recognize the benefit not only in the school setting as a teaching tool, but also on any child’s list of favorite books to read. The most important factor is that Exceptional Experiences LLC is the driving force behind the ability to provide gainful employment opportunities for adults with disabilities.
