Learning about the seasons is an essential part of early Earth science curricula, and it's also a great way to connect science to tangible changes in the world around us. Through the informative narrative and full-color photographs that fill the pages of this accessible guide to the four seasons, readers gain a deeper understanding of the many natural changes that come with each season. They'll learn why the earth has seasons and how the changing of seasons affects Earth's animals, plants, and people.

In this first look at the four seasons of the year, readers learn how their environments change throughout the year and get a glimpse of the science behind the seasons.

How do we know it's winter? The air is cold, and snow falls. Animals look for food. Many plants turn brown, but evergreens stay green. This book shows young readers how to recognize the changes that happen in winter.

How do we know it's fall? The weather is cooler, and the leaves change color. Crops are ready for harvest, and animals get ready for winter. This book shows young readers how to recognize the changes that happen in fall. Includes a video, which launches via a 4D app.

Early readers engage in food literacy, meal planning, and cooking in this exciting series!

Three children accompany their father in a canoe and explore the plant and animal life along a river near their home.

A guy walks into a bar car and... From here the story could take many turns. When this guy is David Sedaris, the possibilities are endless, but the result is always the same: he will both delight you with twists of humor and intelligence and leave you deeply moved. Sedaris remembers his father's dinnertime attire (shirtsleeves and underpants), his first colonoscopy (remarkably pleasant), and the time he considered buying the skeleton of a murdered Pygmy. With Let's Explore Diabetes with Owls, David Sedaris shows once again why his work has been called "hilarious, elegant, and surprisingly moving" (Washington Post).
