The big idea of this book was to inform readers about coyotes and their lifestyle.

I liked this book for a few reasons. The first reason that I liked it was because of the writing. It was very engaging and you could tell the the writer wrote with a lot of expression. The writer also didn't just list facts, but presented them in a fun and appealing way.

A second reason that I liked this book was because of the parts of the book. With it being informational, the author found an interesting way to not just tell about coyotes, but also present fun facts about them. On every page (or every other page almost), there was a fun fact section that shared interesting things about coyotes that other wise wouldn't have been necessary information to include throughout the book.

I also liked that in the beginning of the book, there was a page that was similar to a glossary, but it was in the beginning because it told readers to look out for these words and then defined them. When the words came up in the book, they were highlighted to remind children that they just learned the definition before reading.
