Summary |
In a series of fun and involving hands-on biology experiments, kids learn how dinosaurs are their food without grinding their teeth, how elephants use their ears to cool their bodies, why hummingbirds have long bills, why insects make buzzing sounds, and how birds repair their feathers. They will also determine and demonstrate how earthworms respond to light, how color protects an animal, and how nutrients in the soil are transported to the leaves of plants. Featuring color illustrations and safe, simple step-by-step instructions, Janice VanCleave again shows just how much fun science can be. --Amazon |
