How It Works

There's so much to learn about the world around us! Whether it's the inner workings of the human body, the mechanics of flight, or the vastness of outer space, science topics often inspire curiosity, enthusiasm, and a desire to learn more. Readers dive deeper into these and many other common curriculum topics—from biology and prehistory to physics and environmental science—with the help of detailed text that provides a comprehensive overview of each subject. Eye-catching sidebars call out exciting pieces of additional information, and both photographs and impressive illustrations are used to enhance this learning experience.

Each Book Contains:
• Many detailed diagrams to help readers visualize challenging topics
• A unique design that breaks the text down into small, focused sections around a central image, which appeals to reluctant readers
• Informative labels for each immersive illustration that allow readers to connect important facts with visual representations

Curriculum Connections:
• Topics align with common science curriculum standards, including life sciences, physical science, and Earth and space science
• Labeled illustrations allow readers to practice obtaining information from sources outside the main text of a volume
• Diagrams give readers a deeper understanding of natural processes such as volcanic eruptions, life cycles, and tides—all of which are essential aspects of science curricula
