Water (Penguin Young Readers, L2)
Kindergarten-Grade 3-Neye leads beginning readers on an exploration of water in its many forms-rain, ice, snow, and steam-presenting the sources, uses, and properties of this precious resource in very basic terms. The text, one to three sentences per page, uses simple words, large type, word repetition, and picture clues that make this a wonderful introductory science book. Both the writing and the oil-pastel illustrations are well above average, with Revell's large-headed children enjoying water in all its forms. The exuberant pictures and an easy-to-decode text will entice even reluctant readers to give this selection a try.Jean Lowery, Bishop Woods Elementary School, New Haven, CTCopyright 2003 Reed Business Information, Inc.--This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title.
