Describes the classification system scientists use to identify and name all living organisms, and explains how animals are categorized based on certain characteristics.

Reviews

Easy to read and effortless to follow, this well-organized volume from the Life Processes series uses different-sized fonts, beautiful color photographs, and shaded fact boxes to condense basic information about the kingdom classifications that organize living things. Initial pages define classification and describe concisely the five kingdoms. The main text distinguishes among 10 plant and animal classifications, then provides further elaboration of mammals with an expanded section. With simple sentence structure and well-chosen words, the book makes its explanations clear. The notably fine photos are carefully selected and sized appropriately for the page. "Did You Know?" fact boxes add trivia that correlates directly with the text, and classification charts make succinct references to subcategories of each classification. The appended resources are slight, but the glossary is thorough. Roger Leslie
