LOVE!
I learned so much from this book while doing a unit study with my girls. I highly recommend this book to homeschool families or parents/grandparents wanting to learn alongside their kiddos. It’s filled with such good/relevant information! My kids are 9 and 12, but even at 41 I learned a lot!

Harder than expected for being called, “First”
These are a bit deceiving. They say, “first” but then have complicated words to write & intricate things to color. They would be great as a supplement for an older student who loves art or keeping their hands busy. But they are not simple enough for any kid studying their 1st book on the subject.

Surprisingly worthwhile.
The title makes it sound a bit like a book for very young children but it's actually quite comprehensive and detailed. I was apprehensive about whether it would be suitable for my 15 year old nephew who is aiming to study biology at a-level. It got his stamp of approval. I bought it for about £5 which is very good value for what it offers.
