Review by School Library Journal Review
PreS-Gr 2-These three titles were designed to support national science standards related to changing seasons. Each one is vividly illustrated with large, excellent-quality photographs that complement the simple two to three lines of text on each spread. Apple Harvest has irresistible images, some larger than life, and lightly explores growing, picking, and eating this fruit. Scarecrows showcases whimsical creations: "Scarecrows look like people. They wear shirts and pants stuffed with yellow straw." Animals features engaging images of a bear, squirrels, bees, and other animals affected by the changing season. Animals features engaging images of bear, squirrels, bees and other animals affected by the changing season. Each book has a glossary, table of contents, and index, plus suggestions for further reading and Web sites, providing emerging readers an introduction to these valuable tools. Kids will be drawn to these books because of their strong visual appeal.-Lee Bock, Glenbrook Elementary School, Pulaski, WI (c) Copyright 2010.
