About the Author

Pavla Hanackova comes from a picturesque Moravian village that is surrounded by vineyards. She has been an avid reader since early childhood, and she has always longed to write. She is a graduate in English and Chinese from the Faculty of Arts of Palacky University, Olomouc. Fate has determined that she makes regular returns to her native tongue, as a literary editor of children's books for Albatros publishers. A keen traveller, she draws inspiration wherever she goes, not least to feed another of her passions - food and everything associated with it.
Industry Reviews

"The format of the book is great for children who love stories and learning. The overarching fictional story walks children into each place, where they can read cool facts and learn about different forest types and the animals who live there. The cartoonish animals add to the fun of the story that manages to pack a lot of information with a simple story line and adorable characters. The breadth of forests and facts is great as a starting place for learning more. There are a lot of great educational points in the book. The text is easy to read throughout and doesn't take away from the full page detailed illustrations, managing to be relatively small and very readable. All the animals are labeled when pictured, which is really helpful for children who want to learn about everything. Educational, approachable, and full of adorable characters, TAKE ME HOME: FORESTS OF THE WORLD is perfect for elementary school aged readers who love learning, fun facts, and animals." -YA Books Central

"Take Me Home: Forests of the World is a compilation of succinct facts about forests from around the globe, pointing out the animals and plants found in them, as well as the unique features and inner workings of these environments. The animals will love to tell the young reader on a journey where they will learn many new things!" -Midwest Book Review

"This book does a wonderful job of telling the story of the different types of forests around the world. The reader will be introduced to different flora and fauna in the various forests by the small snippets of information shared amongst the pictures. The layout and style make the large amount of information easier for children to digest and enjoy! Great read!" -Amanda Raiche, Librarian

"I have also had the pleasure of reading the Take Me Home: Waters of the World, and I love the author and illustrator's ability to introduce the unique variety of life to children. The illustrations are adorable and colorful, and the writings is fun and interesting. I enjoy the set up of traveling around the world to get the animals back to their habitats. Children will enjoy learning about animals, and it can be a useful tool in schools and libraries." -Jordan Gray, Librarian

"An informative and easy reading experience that teaches the different forests in the world. While the illustrations are beautiful and easy to look at perhaps reading with a grown up could help clarify everything. I loved seeing not only the plants that grow in a certain forest but also the creatures that live there." -Sally Xiong, Blogger
