With school summer breaks either underway or about to begin, the chances are strong that children will be exploring and playing in the outdoors. They are also likely to see insects, spiders, and other creatures that emerge in warm weather. These encounters are opportunities to answer their questions and stimulate their curiosity about the natural world, or at least that portion with many legs.
A wonderful way to understand the world of insects and spiders is with Enslow Publishers' new book Insect or Spider: How Do You Know? Author Melissa Stewart's 24-page work offers full-page color, side-by-side photos on every spread, so that young readers can visually compare the animals' distinctions. The easily read titles and large type size makes the book an easy "way in" for new readers. It also encourages read-aloud sessions useful for parent-child readings and for small group readings in schools and public libraries.
This new Enlsow Publishers book, part of the six-title "Which Animal Is Which?" series, is available in paperback for $6.95. A library-bound edition is also available.
