About Shell Education
Rachelle Cracchiolo started the company with a friend and fellow teacher. Both were eager to share their ideas and passion for education with other classroom leaders. What began as a hobby, selling lesson plans to local stores, became a part-time job after a full day of teaching, and eventually blossomed into Teacher Created Materials. The story continued in 2004 with the launch of Shell Education and the introduction of professional resources and classroom application books designed to support Teacher Created Materials curriculum resources. Today, Teacher Created Materials and Shell Education are two of the most recognized names in educational publishing around the world.

Review

This series of science books have simple text or are wordless; they are designed to get the very young to imagine and participate in the shared reading experience. The text flows effectively and incorporates clean, lively, and intriguing photos, which become helpful clues to the overall meaning for visual and inexperienced readers. Some titles will allow students the opportunity to make predictions as the text is repetitive and anticipated. The structure of the information is charming and age-appropriate. This series would be a wonderful purchase for lower grade elementary classrooms and school libraries; it would be an even greater benefit if these books were made into Big Books --Library Media Connection

They are clever and easy to read with humorous illustrations. --Library Journal
