From Caterpillar to Butterfly (Let's Read and Find Out) 自然科学
Although the drama of metamorphosis has been documented withgreater detail in other titles, this presentation stands outbecause of its classroom setting. The process is seen through thechildren's eyes as they experience the excitement of observing thewiggly caterpillar, watch it molt, change into a chrysalis, endurethe endless waiting, and stare in wonder as a Painted Ladybutterfly emerges and dries its wings. The closing pages show theclass at the window watching the insect pause on a flower beforeflying away to begin the life cycle once again. Pen-and-ink andwatercolor illustrations create a cheerful setting similar in styleto those found in Miriam Cohen's books about classroom events.Close-ups show the stages of transformation as captions wend alongplant leaves and stems reminiscent of a caterpillar crawling. Asmall collection of butterflies commonly found in most parts of theU.S. and a list of addresses of butterfly centers are appended. Aninviting book that young children can relate to and one tha

Planets in Our Solar System, The (Let's Read and Find Out) 自
Originally published in 1981, this title gets a facelift withthe addition of some new information, including a brief list of Websites, plus new illustrations. Though given to dogmatic statementslike "The most important part of the solar system is the sun,"Branley makes his points briefly and precisely, steering clear ofdistracting dialogue and side commentary. Also, rather than themore common one-planet-after-the-other tour, he groups togetherheavenly bodies, discussing temperature, size, and orbital lengthin comparative terms; the effect is to reinforce the idea of thesolar system as a system rather than an assemblage of isolatedelements. He finishes with instructions for a planetary mobile andseveral other simple projects. O'Malley creates a rudimentary storyline in his illustrations, in which an African-American version ofMs. Frizzle guides a class around a planetarium, and inserts smallastronomical photos into his cartoon scenes. Still one of the mostbasic books on the subject, this is a welcome re

Where Does the Garbage Go? (Let's Read and Find Out) 自然科学启蒙2
Grade 1-4-An update of the 1974 title (HarperCollins), notonly in content but also in terminology. In the original, thenarrator's grandfather buried their trash on his farm and fedgarbage to the hogs. "Garbage and trash" were taken together to thedump, or, in the case of big cities, incinerated, resulting in airpollution. Separating trash for recycling was only a hopefulprospect. Gone is the family farm in the 1994 edition. Childrenlearn in school about how things "used to be." They take a fieldtrip to a landfill where garbage and trash (brought in from anearby big city) are still being buried, but they refer torecycling as a commonplace activity in which the whole townparticipates. A pie chart breaks down the composition of a landfillby percentages. Showers mentions toxic ash and smoke generated fromincinerators and the basic problem of too much trash. The picturesare also more sophisticated in content, if not style. How alandfill is built and how an incinerator works are more fullyportrayed than in t

Gr. 2-4, younger for use with adults. Kids will immediately becaught by the idea that, "the oldest things you can collect arerocks." This simple geology book goes on to discuss the formation,hardness, types, and uses of rock.

Wiggling Worms at Work (Let's Read and Find Out) 自然科学启蒙2:在工作
This is a great book marred by a few unclear pictures. Thewell-organized text explains how worms improve the quality of soiland covers the basics about the animal's body structure, movement,diet, and reproduction. The writing is clear and engaging; in oneinstance, Pfeffer compares the segments on a worm's body to "thecoils on a Slinky toy." Although the collage artwork is visuallyappealing, some of the images are a bit confusing. In oneillustration accompanying the explanation of how a worm tunnels,the creature looks as if it has been chopped in two or torn up. Inanother, it looks as if it is decomposing. The book ends withsuggestions for examining a worm in the field and ascience-fair-type project using castings. Better choices includeKevin Holmes's Earthworms (Bridgestone, 1998), Michael ElsohnRoss's Wormology (Carolrhoda, 1996), and Bobbie Kalman's SquirmyWormy Composters (Crabtree, 1992; o.p.). K-Gr. 3.

Nest Full of Eggs, A (Let's Read and Find Out) 自然科学启蒙1:一窝鸟蛋I
A young boy and girl observe the activities of a robin familyfrom the first "cheer-up" call of spring, through nest building,hatching, and fledging. Additional information about other kinds ofbirds and their behaviors is touched upon. One double-spread showsdevelopment within the egg. The format is open and inviting withillustrations that have child appeal. However, the colors appearrather flat and washed out, lacking the exuberance one associateswith the season. An adequate accompaniment to Barrie Watts's Birds'Nest (Silver Burdett, 1991), a photographic presentation of thenesting season of the blue titmouse. Gr. 1-3. More complex than most stage-one books in the Let'sRead-and-Find-Out series, this begins with a pair of Americanrobins building a nest in a suburban garden. Two kids watch thenest and see the eggs hatch out and the babies learn to fly. At thesame time they read about birds in all kinds of places.

Honey in a Hive (Let's Read and Find Out) 自然科学启蒙2:蜂房里的蜜蜂ISBN
Grade 1-3–An appealing blend of smoothly written text andmeticulous color illustrations. Short blocks of large, easy-to-readprint, most of which are set on the backgrounds of picture spreads,briefly describe the functions of the queen, drones, and workers;some major physical and behavioral characteristics; the beecommunication dance; swarming; and the honey-making process. Therealistic, finely detailed paintings match the serene tone of thetext. Several spreads offer full-color views of bees foraging forfood in idyllic meadows, while others are close-ups of workers busyinside golden-hued hives. The book concludes with miscellaneousfacts about the insects and honey. The text omits some importantinformation. For instance, metamorphosis is not described, althoughseveral pictures include cross-sections of developing larvae andpupae within their wax cells, and a queen is shown laying an egg.There is little discussion of physical characteristics; however,the illustrations extend the text in this regard as well.
