A Great Non-Fiction Book for Young Readers and Pre-Readers,
By
This review is from: From Plant to Blue Jeans (Changes) (Paperback)
This book is a very interesting short explanation of the processes involved in making blue jeans. It uses simple words, but is not a dumbed-down narrative. It's great for that budding process engineer in your household - the one whose favorite question isn't "Why?", but "How?"The book is illustrated with a variety of stock photographs, many with children as the focal point. This helps grab and maintain youngsters' interest. Since blue jeans are a common item in most kids' lives, this overview of where they come from can serve as a springboard for many interesting discussions of where other everyday things come from. The book does contain some unfamiliar words, but at about one sentence per page, the book will not frustrate newer readers - probably 2nd grade level or advanced 1st grade level. It's also a great book for reading to younger kids. Highly recommended.
