WOW! The beautifully colored pages, wonderful photography, and fascinating facts engaged my children from the minute they opened the book. The World of Animals is broken down into 8 chapters: A World Full of Animals; Simple Animals; Worms, Snails, and Starfish; Insects and other Arthropods; Fish; Amphibians and Reptiles; Birds; and Mammals. There are numerous sub-headings under each chapter containing graphic photos and detailed information. The page layouts include insets with special details along with overall facts about the topic. This book is unlike any encyclopedic work I've seen so far. Brightly colored and attention grabbing details made this a popular book in our home.
Another fascinating book with scintillating facts, World of Science grabbed my kids attention with the not only the information, but the fun science experiments contained at the end of the book. Any time a book goes beyond informing to educating, not only are my kids hooked, but so am I. Personal involvement helps kids learn first hand. I was amazed at the number of experiments included in this book ranging from wind and water to radio waves and magnetism. Detailed drawings and well-worded instructions make the experiments not only look fun, but are actually doable! This 250+ page book is a great addition to any home educators library.Just another thought from the tub,
Lori
