Mizielinski,
Aleksandra and Daniel Under Earth/Under Water, 60 pgs
Big picture press (candlewick), 2015. $35.00. NON-FICTION
This oversized book is stuffed with information! From one side
it covers everything under the Earth from burrowing animals, to pipes, to
fossils and ton more. From the other side is covers everything under the Sea
like deep sea fish, quite a bit about divers, coral reefs, submarines, and much
more. Filled with detailed drawings and information, so there is plenty to read
and see. My favorite was describing the exploration of a large underground cave
system, it was like going on a journey with little stops for amazing and cool
facts.
This book would be so much fun for a reader to explore! I would
still offer this for checkout, though it is quite expensive to replace. Its so
detailed that a teacher might not be able to easily share, but there are a many
pages that might be worth the effort with a smaller group. I usually rage when
there isn’t photographs in informational books, but this one might have earned
itself an exception.
