Customer Reviews

Good Educational Book - a review of "Head Louse"

This book focuses on only head lice - it doesn't really mention avian varieties nor body lice. It's got some very nice photographs, including a really kid-friendly (gross) picture of someone with a bad hair infestation. Chapter Headings are: What Are Head Lice? What Head Lice Look Like How Big Are Head Lice? How Head Lice Are Born How Head Lice Grow What Head Lice Eat How We Attack Head Lice Where Head Lice Live How Head Lice Move How Long Head Lice Live What Head Lice Do How Are Head Lice Special? Thinking about Head Lice Bug Map Glossary/More Books to Read/Index Four Stars ::: Great photographs. This book's focus is on head lice and it would made a good selection for an elementary aged student who is either writing a book report, or who wants to learn more about the vile little creatures. The Accelerated Reading level (ATOS) for "Head Louse" is 3.7. Pam T~
