Really disappointed because this was a birthday gift for my daughter, and it came damaged straight out of the box. If it wasn’t so difficult to return items in Portugal, I would ship it back.
The book itself is great, with pictures as well as cute drawings.

My six grandchildren are all in elementary school and are extremely curious, loving to read “science” books. This set of books, and I bought three in the set, for each group of grandchildren, provides in-depth information, but in a readable fashion, covering my early reader (first grade) without being too easy or too simple for the fifth grader. Highly recommend – kids can read by themselves, but it is also fun to read with and to them. Great information. Period can it be entertaining as well as educational ? This set is.

My kids loves non-fiction and all things nature. We have a few of these books and we really enjoy them. They are very informative and interesting. And they’re also so pretty! The book itself really is nice. My son will read a few pages at a time and keeps it in his regular rotation of books he reads. Highly recommend!
