by Carly Allen-Fletcher (Author)
"Vivid examples . . . plenty of thought-provoking surprises." -- The Wall Street Journal
A vibrant journey through the six classification kingdoms of animals, plants, protists, fungi, archaea, and bacteria. Life is all around us--in millions of different forms!
In this eye-popping nonfiction book, Carly Allen-Fletcher invites children on a tour of scientific classification's six kingdoms of life. Every page will spark new questions: what makes each kingdom unique? Where do scientists place camels, baobabs, seaweed, and bread molds? How about the tiny things wriggling under our microscopes? What weird and wonderful life-forms have been discovered in the geysers of Yellowstone and on the seafloors off the coast of Namibia?
Exploding with bright colors and mind-boggling details, Kingdoms of Life is the perfect introduction to how the science of classification helps us explore and understand the wonders of nature.
Part of Eerdmans' Spectacular STEAM for Curious Readers series.
