I have purchased and used all the titles in this series with my granddaughter. It is hard to believe how much you forget over the years and these books are full of information. They are easy to use and very helpful, I found (in some instances) more info in these books than I could anywhere else - they are really useful and worth the price.

Homeschooler's Blessing!!!

I purchased the entire set of these books "Everything You Need..." and find that they are the BEST, absolutely the BEST resources I have found in a compact book. I highly recommend these books, not only for homeschooling families but for anyone who wants to "know more"!!

Great for studing for the CSET exam!

I just purchased this book and I am using it as a supplement to Jerry Bobrow's CSET muliple subject test prep book (Cliffs Test Prep) and it is great! It's written in a simple language, and contains all sorts of review,pictures, charts, etc. It has been MANY years since I have studied science and this so far is helping me remember all the material neccessary for passing the test.

(with an easy to understand description of the various plant and animal kingdoms)The Animal KingdomThe Plant KingdomEcology and the Landscapes of LifePlanet EarthOuter SpaceThe Physical WorldThe basic concepts are simply explained, with helpful graphics, so it is very easy to understand.
