excellant picture book making learning fun!

While some of the ideas/rhymes were a bit to advanced for my toddler she and I quite enjoyed most of the rhymes in this book, each rhyme describes something related to science, guess from the clues, with the answer upside down at the bottom of each poem. It covers teachings on: the Galapagos Islands, laser beams, germs, Albert Einstein, magnets, oxygen, gravity, electricity, planets, maps, humidity, numbers,constellations, decibels, oceans, dinosaurs, properties of rust and the moon. None of the text is wordy or complicated. Each poem rhymes and some only span a few words, making it an easy read for children of all ages. The very last page of the book has more facts covering each of the topics in the rhymes. A cute read and a good one to have.
