4.0 out of 5 stars Really well done, April 22, 2009
By 
Heather Martin (The Republic of Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Life in a Kelp Forest (Undersea Encounters) (Paperback)
This was a great book. It held our attention and the text was easy to understand. The subject was thoroughly covered and we learned a lot of new words and concepts. The pictures were beautiful and helped reinforce the text - for example, if they were talking about a float or a holdfast, there would be a clear picture of the named thing.

Overall a very good book about kelp forests. And one we will use again. Living close to the ocean made this especially fun as we were able to go look at everything we studied first hand. I just love picking up slimy kelp!

I think this could be used from kindergarten (with help) up through late middle school.
