About the Author

Dona does not know which is more fun-learning about the world through science, or writing books for children that tell all about it. She is glad she does not have to decide and can do both!

Reviews

PreS-K-Young readers are introduced to three science content areas-life, physical, and Earth and space-that support Next Generation Science Standards in these beginner volumes. Easy-to-read text clearly explains basic concepts, while colorful photos of familiar objects enable students to better grasp the ideas. Interactive elements, such as "Your Turn!" and "Let's Do Science!," invite students to apply what they've learned through hands-on activities, specifically through charting, drawing, and writing. Sensitive readers may be disturbed by a few upsetting images of animals in distress in Too Much Trash, but overall, the book effectively draws attention to the serious nature of pollution. Conspicuously, Sort It! stands out-and not in a necessarily good way-as the sole volume that contains cartoon illustrations in addition to photos.α(c) Copyright 2014.
