The "...Strangest Things" series is a wonderful series for young elementary aged children. It is a great way to introduce them to science. I had these books when I was a child many years ago, and remembered them well. Fortunately, my mother saved them, so I have been able to share them with my own

This is a little lengthy book probably better for upper grades. It's a good book to be able and show kids about insects and what they do. In ways we never could imagen they do.
