The Science of Seasons

Leslie Strudwick · 2001
66/100
👎 Skip It

A competent introductory earth-science book that covers the basics — orbit, ecology, polar seasons — in age-appropriate language for early readers. The environmental-threat angle gives it a slightly broader purpose than pure curriculum filler. But the short format and thin independent critical reception make it hard to rank above the average shelf book.
