Overview

Focusing on animals, a subject of intense fascination for young students, this book helps educators build learning across the curriculum. It contains four sections-animals as pets, animals on the farm, animals in the woods, and animals in the wild. In each section the author describes subject-specific fiction and nonfiction materials and other books that will help readers make the transition from fiction to nonfiction. Plot summaries, discussion topics, and student projects help develop library research skills and link language arts to science, math, social studies, and the arts. Books cited were selected by children's librarians and published within the last 10 years. Grades K-5.
