Editorial Review
Biology Basics: Need to Know - Booklist
These titles in the Biology Basics series (6 titles) explore important concepts about biology and the interrelationships of plants, animals, climates, and habitats. Each book will draw in readers with vibrant photos, engaging fact boxes, and compelling infographics that further illuminate the sometimes opaque scientific facts. Animal Classification examines the characteristics of various creatures and why we divide animals into different classes. It also discusses oddball animals that are difficult to classify, such as bats and platypuses. Each title contains bolded vocabulary, a glossary, and thought-provoking questions to aid the reader in expanding their understanding and thinking about the facts and concepts within the text. The series challenges young readers to think more deeply about the relationships of the natural world and the importance of taking care of all the parts of our environment.
