Críticas

This book is about the life of a Polar bear, what they eat, their anatomy, even how many cubs they typically have. This book would be amazing for a 3rd grade class. I might use this to kick off a discussion on fiction and non-fiction, and maybe introduce a project on animals. After reading this book, students could choose an animal to research and present to the class what they learned.

A sad book written to help children understand war and being a war refugee. The art goes well with the story, painting an image of the horror and sorrow of war, without being too frightening or gory.

I love the narratives Nicola Davies creates around her nonfiction topics.

Extremely interesting, full of grossness and scatalogical factoids, definitely worth recommending to the 3rd-6th grader who enjoys a bit of yuck.
