Children's Literature
This book delivers what the title suggests. It discusses ten of nature's habitats and encourages readers to think, wonder, and then investigate a habitat found in nature. Young students are directed to take an adult with them on these quests. Next, the students are asked to describe what they found in the habitat at the park or other places nature provides. This is the kind of information useful for a science fair. There are interesting factual stories about the animals whose habits are studied. These include bugs, birds, fish and other animals residing in nature's habitats. There is an anecdotal account of China's use of bird nests which continues today. You will read little-known interesting facts about chameleons and color. These habitat questions will appear on many science tests and the knowledge gained from quests will probably hold the key. There are three titles in the "Real Life Series:" Awesome Animal, Lively Plant and Sensational Human Body. Elementary libraries should have copies of this series. Reviewer: Jennie DeGenaro
