Ecosystems by Mary Lindeen is an informative, non-fiction book in the Physical Science Series. The book provides an interesting way that is easy for children to understand about some of the ecosystems in the world. Some of the things explained include location, climate and what might be living there.

This is an early reader book so will also help to reinforce reading skills and build confidence. At the back of the book it lists the high frequency words as well as content words that can be pre-taught or discussed if the book is being read aloud. There are facts given during the reading accompanied by wonderful photos and many labels. The section at the back for parents and teachers gives suggested activities for connecting concept as well as resources for further investigation.

I recommend this book for young readers and for parents and teachers to read to children.

I received this ARC from NetGalley via Norwood House Press in exchange for an honest review.

A good book for a primary classroom studying habitats and ecosystems.

I really like these books, they are excellent for younger children that are beginning to learn, not only with his book will they be learning about the different types of ecosystem and the animals that live in them, the words used are picked specifically to enhance their learning - 5 stars from me, some fantastic images and really well laid out, I would purchase a copy to keep for my daughter.
