Some of the topics covered in this book are bodies of water, the equator, poles, and hemispheres, latitude and longitude, urban and rural areas, landforms, extreme continents, and many more. This book certainly shows a different and fun way to study this important curriculum topic! From School Library Journal: Kindergarten-Grade 4—These titles vary in their usefulness and complexity. Consistency is a problem. In Continents, seven places are named at the beginning under "The 'A' Continents" when only six begin with that letter, and the "Q" entry is "Quartz," which is a bit specific for a book on this topic. Similarly, the first chapter of Animals is "Animals in Danger," but "Rhinoceros" represents "R." In all of the titles, specific names of things, insects, continents, or animals are mixed with generalized categories like "Habitat loss," for "H" in Environment. The books are visually appealing, with color photos on every page, and include a variety of children, animals, and natural environments. They might expose children to new words and curious creatures, but they're strictly additional purchases.—Erlene Bishop Killeen, Stroughton Area School District, WI END "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

This book explores the ways in which people are different and the same. We are all living things on the same planet. We all need food, shelter, and friends. We all grow up. We also have different ways of life, and we are each good at different things. The things that are the same make us feel close to one another; the things that are different make it fun to know each other! "About this title" may belong to another edition of this title.

Provides information about young carnivores, including anatomy, habitat, and relatives. From School Library Journal: Gr 2-4–These titles support introductory life-science studies. Carnivores covers animal taxonomy and the food chain and also discusses the species' habitats, characteristics, and behaviors. Color photos include baby carnivores, such as a cuddly polar bear, a lion cub, and a helpless-looking baby ferret.  From pygmy jerboas to capybaras, Rodents offers straightforward, comprehensive information. This volume discusses the attributes of mammals before describing specific families. The final page includes an exercise that asks students to decide, “Are they rodents?” The clear color photos display a wide range of creatures. Both titles conclude with a combined illustrated glossary and index, which students working at the rudimentary report-writing level will find helpful. Kids will enjoy learning while building vocabulary and establishing a science foundation.–Kathryn Diman, Bass Harbor Memorial Library, Bernard, MEα(c) Copyright 2013.
