A series which makes use of stunning photography to illustrate how animals and plants grow. The text is specifically written to cater for a wide range of reading abilities, with each spread looking at a different stage of the lifecycle. Introductory, simple paragraphs work with the pictures to give an overview, while the main text expands these points in greater detail. Mouse - Captures photographically the lifecycle of a mouse, from baby to fully-grown adult. The book also looks at how the mouse moves, feeds, protects itself and mates.

Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

PreSchool-- Although the premise of these British imports is good, they fall short of their potential. Each follows its subject from birth through 12 and 8 weeks, respectively. Clear photographs--closeup and full body of the animals in action and at rest--are just what preschoolers need. However, the images stand on the pages sans background or any other objects with which to compare them for size. Mouse shows the creatures in a nest; there's no indication of how or where sheep live. The brief texts are written in the first-person voice, speaking of brothers and sisters and other anthropomorphisms. Pages and format are sturdy, photographs are focused and appealing, but the books present incomplete information. --Virginia Opocensky, formerly at Lincoln City Libraries, NE
