Kids Books - Nature

My mom chose this book for me when we went to the library. When I first saw the book I knew that there was a movie based on it, but I thought it had to do with ghosts, because of the title and the cover. Also, I did not read the description on the back: i just decided to start reading. Its based on four African-American women Katherine Johnson, Mary Jackson, Dorothy Vaughan and Christine Darden who worked together to do mathematics calculations during WWII to improve airplanes and missiles and then later become mathematician and engineers of NASA.

Science, History, Geography, and even cute animals and interesting types of insects as National Geographic covers most of the subjects. For science topics, they talks about how things like technologies work, plus the science and history in mix about an insects. Animals like wildcats, dogs, small cats, horses, and even elephants and giraffes who have interesting stories about them. History, as in my absolute favorite subject, talks about the past and how things have evolved since the time goes by. I would recommend this type of book for anyone who is interested in things that's happening in the world, and also have some laughs over the funny comics and stories that they give us. - Happy Reading!

Iris is loney. Being the only deaf girl at her school, many people ignore her or try to hard to do sign language like Nina. Her best friend Wellden goes to a school for the deaf that Iris wants to go to, except her mom doesn't want that for Iris. She thinks best when it's just her and the old radios Irish cleans up and repairs. So when is science, Iris learns about a whale, Blue 55, who is unlike the rest of his pod and is likely deaf. He doesn't fit in with anyone and probably doesn't even know his own parents. Iris's heart aches, her nose runs, and she thinks...that this is how she feels all the time too. Iris is destined to help Blue 55. Making a song for him and writing back and forth with a worker of Blue 55, Iris is more determined than ever to help him. Secretly booking a cruise with her lonely deaf grandmother to visit Blue 55 2,000 miles away, Iris is not only helping Blue 55, but herself and someone very close to her. Will Iris's plan work? Or will it just be another failed attempt? Get your tissues ready, for Song for a Whale is full of sign language, self discovery, and whales. Happy reading!

Weird But True books always have wacky information! I cannot believe that some existing wacky information was real! Like aspiring mall Santas can learn the job at the International University of Santa Claus!!!!

Visually stunning. The illustrations are so beautiful and eye catching it can be easy to get off track of such an important message. Based on a tribe's opposition to a pipeline being constructed near their water source, it is a reminder that indigenous violations and environmental concerns are still being violated today. There is a compelling message here among the inspirational writing style. A complement to any library's diversified collection to include native voices.

It's a really nice book it gives information about insects and what they can do!!!!!!

This book is about a girl named Ellie. Her parents are divorced, but still are good friends. Her mother and grandfather however don't get along that well. He sometimes tells her that she could have made a better choices. However he is also a scientist, and has discovered the secret of T. melvinus (Turritopsis melvinus). It can have the power to reverse age a person. Ellie's grandfather decides to test it on himself. It worked! However, he is forced to stay with Ellie and her mom. He takes the name Melvin, and is forced to go to school with Ellie. They meet a new friend, Raj. The book includes there adventures and also a mini-heist. I enjoyed this book, and found it inspirational. I also love science. It had good messages at the end too! The story sort of teaches you at the end to look at reverse aging a different way. The good and bad of innovations. The book can also be read by younger kids too. It is a great all-ages book.

I love it

I like this book and the series. It is about a 300 different interesting facts. "An example would be Did you know the sun has holes in it?" If you like science and interesting facts then this is the book for you. I can connect to this book because I reminds me of my science book. It has tons of facts and information. I can give this book 5 stars because it is entertaining and factual.

It is good
