5.0 out of 5 stars Enjoy these Backyard Books September 29, 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
We have ordered the majority of the Backyard books for our daughter who loves science. Good explanation, fair illustrations. Has been great for preschooler, early elementary age child regarding understanding material and encouraging interest in science. Our favorites are "Are you a Ladybug" and "Are you a Butterfly" but all books have been informative and fun to read! We have even learned quite a bit as parents and one of us actually has a science background.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Tool April 14, 2012
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
This book grabs the children's attention right from the beginning. I used it along with Insect Lore's Life Cycle Changes plastic "toy" to give a lesson to preschoolers through grade 2 on metamorphosis. I couldn't have been more pleased with the results. Everyone present learned something and the children loved the hands-on part as well.

5.0 out of 5 stars BEES July 3, 2010
Format:Paperback|Amazon Verified Purchase
I quite like the format of this book. It tells the story of bees by asking questions. At the end it turns around to what a child is. The illustrations are terrific and the information is perfect for young children to understand. I was so impressed that I bought numerous other books that are by the same authors and done in the same format. They will work well in my classroom.
