Recenzijas

Written with surprising wit and charm, this book is as funny as it is informative, never losing sight of educating the reader, even while entertaining you with trivia questions, goofy asides, ideas for assignments, and impressive photography that brings each of these unique creatures to life.,Glenn Dallas,San Francisco Book Review, 12/19/16 Combining two tween favoriteshumor and the gross-out factorthe titles in the Things That Make You Go Yuck! series are also educational. But don't tell that to students. These books are all about animal (and a few plant and microorganism) adaptations and survival, particularly the planet's more unusual creatures, and readers will enjoy reading one quick, double-page story after another. The smaller formatwith close-up color photos on every page, puns that introduce each species, and related quizzesadd to the browsing appeal. Mystifying Mutants discusses the role of genes and how mutations have given animals and plants strange physical characteristics and adaptations to survive (or not!). A final chapter discusses how and why scientists are genetically modifying animals. From yuck to wow to hmm, these books will draw out the curiosity in any reader.,Angela Leeper,Booklist, 1/1/17 Eye-catching pictures will grab the attention of anyone just flipping through the books, and the quirky humor will engage readers as they enjoy learning fun facts as they explore the text from cover to cover!,Gifted Child Today, 7/1/17
