FINE PHOTOS, GOOD DESCRIPTIONS,
By reviewer (Zurich, Switzerland.) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Scholastic Encyclopedia Of Animals (Hardcover)
The efforts of Laurence Pringle and Norbert Wu combined effectively to unleash this fine book."Scholastic Encyclopedia of Animals" is one graphical zoo, which browsed through a wide variety of animals: fishes, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Sound descriptions and illustrations were very common here. Ecology, as well as the physical and the behavioural characters of each animal was discussed. Not only will school-children appreciate the contents of this book, it will serve as vital educational and leisure introduction (to life-science) for them. Whereas toddlers may use it to identify some domestic animals which they have seen before, older pupils will use it to sooth their curiosities: which may serve as an early precursor for interest in the fields of Biology, Agriculture, and General Science.

My son's favorite book,
By
This review is from: Scholastic Encyclopedia Of Animals (Hardcover)
My kindergarten son just loves this book. He bought it at school and for the past few months has carried it around with him almost as much as his favorite stuffed animal. It's written for middle-elementary aged kids but he can read well and has increased his reading skills in the process. The animals are all presented in alphabetical order, which is another feature that he loves.
