Food

This book explores the concept of food, and why living things - i.e., animals, humans and plants - need it.

“This cleanly designed series explains what determines that humans, animals, and plants are living things. Their needs for light, air, water, food, and shelter are explained in short, simple sentences, introducing rudimentary life-science concepts. Each volume contains a quiz that tests readers on their newly acquired knowledge. The bright color photos, one per page, are attention-grabbing. This series is recommended for early elementary learners who may simply enjoy browsing the photos for pleasure. - Kathryn Diman, Bass Harbor Memorial Library, Bernard, ME School Library Journal April 2012 Issue”

Each book in this series explains one of the essential needs that all living things have, and is a perfect fit for the first grade Life Science standard. Most first grade readers will find the full-color photo on each page with a single sentence interesting and accessible. There are additional features, such as close-up picture-in-a-picture, captions, and a pictorial glossary featuring a photo from the book to aid in understanding.
