If You Had a Tail (We Can Read about Nature!)

Nature is full of mysteries to be uncovered and wonders to be explored. The eighteen titles in this reading series plunge early readers into the endless fascination of the natural world. An array of important scientific concepts such as camouflage, habitat, identification of species and life cycles are presented in the simplest of words. A wonderfully clear and inviting text and a wealth of dazzling photographs result in an accessible format that invites repeat visits. Each title begins with a word list alerting readers to key words that will follow and ends with "Fun with Phonics" -- an excellent tool for parents and teachers -- and "Fun Facts" that will gently challenge young readers with extra items of interest.Catherine Nichols is the author of 'If You Had a Tail (We Can Read about Nature!)', published 2001 under ISBN 9780761412519 and ISBN 0761412514.
