By Jacqueline Langille and Bobbie Kalman

Book Overview

While most fish eggs become food for other animals, the male seahorse guards its eggs in a special pouch until they hatch! This exciting book explains the basic concept of the life cycle in an easy-to-understand way for children. Fascinating examples explain both plant and animal life including: - insects, amphibians, reptiles, birds, mammals, and underwater life - the process from seed or egg through birth, growth, reproduction, and death - the dangers to existing life cycles from man and other predators

great science book

This entire series of books on animals, their habitats, life cycles, etc. are wonderful! I own 13 of them now. I use these with my first graders during our animal unit. Each book has fantastic pictures and drawings. The information is presented very well but also simply enough that primary aged students can grasp the concepts and find it fascinating. The books also enable themselves to be read in pieces if you want to skip something or focus on a certain area. I highly recommend books by Bobbie Kalman!
