About the Author:
Claire Llewellyn was an editor of children's fiction and non-fiction for over ten years before becoming a writer, specializing in books for younger readers. Her 'My First Book of Time' won TES Junior Information Book Award in 1992. Since then, she has written over 50 children's books on a wide range of subjects.
From School Library Journal:
Grade 4-6-Flippers, wings, hooves, exoskeletons, and more are included in this not-limited-to-bones introduction. Each two-page spread explains topics such as the underwater armor of crustaceans, the cartilaginous structure of fish, and the structure of bones. The writing is straightforward, well paced, and filled with the kinds of details that will appeal to young readers, such as how forensic scientists can reconstruct a human face. The illustrations are great; the full-color photos are crisp and well posed, and the drawings are clear and understandable. The book is written and laid out so well that the transposing of captions on one page can be easily overlooked. A good resource for reports and an enjoyable browsing item.
