As a seventh grade teacher, I am always looking for books that my students will get interested in, especially nonfiction books! This book is a MUST for any parent of a reluctant reader or a teacher, especially at the middle school level. The author of this book makes the most mundane topics interesting and uses language that kids can understand. She uses humor to keep you entertained as you read. Each section of the book is thorough without going on too long and making the reader lose interest. The author also does a great job of cross-referencing, so that you know what sections might also be of interest to you as you read about a particular topic. In addition to the great writing, there are great charts and illustrations, as well as photos! I cannot say enough great things about this book. Buy it today-- you will not be sorry!Read full review
Although written for kids, this is a great book for adults too. It covers everything from anatomy and physiology to nature, biology, weather, wildlife and lots in between in terms that nearly anyone can understand. It goes into just enough detail to give a great explanation of the subject. It is a wonderful book for parents or anyone who has a child who always want to know "why" or how things work and is a valuable tool for teaching how to use reference materials.
He's fascinated with all things gross anyway, a little education couldn't hurt. Fun, but accurate info.
