First Nature Encyclopedia (DK First Reference) [Hardcover]
If you've read some reviews, we homeschool our 6 and 10 year olds and use various books from amazon to assist in their education. Our 6 year old is capable of finding out quite complex scientific concepts, but when it comes to reading from a book, she learns best with clear information that isn't too detailed. This book works very well with her bio technology curriculum, as it is organized by habitats. The sections are: Polar Regions, Cool Forests, Rainforests, Grasslands, Deserts, Mountains and Caves, Freshwater Habitats, Ocean Habitats, and Towns and Cities.
Like all DK books, the photos are phenomenal with close-ups of various animals. Although the book won't have enough scientific depth for our 10 year old, I'm certain that she's going to spend hours flipping through it as well. The organization by habitat is just such a supreme way of simplifying the study of animals.
