Editorial Reviews

Review

The Science of Living Things series demonstrates that Bobbie Kalman and her staff have turned out yet another informative and finely produced series of books. . . . this whole series would make a welcome addition to the elementary school library -- Kay Lehr, Fort Rouge School, Manitoba, Jan. 1999

This is a good book for Science research projects with a format that provides a good model for organizing information for students. Teachers will find it serves as a simple source book for basic understanding of main groups of mammals -- Jack King, Fort Rouge School, Manitoba, April 1998 --This text refers to the Library Binding edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wonderful book to teach with!, April 11, 2002
This review is from: What Is a Mammal? (Science of Living Things) (Paperback)
This entire series of books on animals, their habitats, life cycles, etc. are wonderful! I own 13 of them now. I use these with my first graders during our animal unit. Each book has fantastic pictures and drawings. The information is presented very well but also simply enough that primary aged students can grasp the concepts and find it fascinating. The books also enable themselves to be read in pieces if you want to skip something or focus on a certain area. I highly recommend books by Bobbie Kalman!
