(4) K-3 Life Cycles series. Photographs by Dwight Kuhn. The life cycles of two birds are explored in these two slim series volumes. The books are written in simple, descriptive language that doesn't talk down to young readers. While often unattractively presented, the color photos include an inside-the-egg view of a chicken embryo and a size comparison between a hummingbird egg and a chicken egg. Suggested activities and a list of websites are appended. Also available in Spanish. Bib., glos., ind. [Review covers these Life Cycles titles: Chicken and Hummingbird.]
