In Anglerfish, author Elaine M. Alexander and illustrator Fiona Fogg shine a small light on this mesmerizing, unforgettable creature. A captivating text paired with stunning artwork complement not only STEM but also language arts and history curricula. More facts about the anglerfish--from how it hunts to the surprising way a female mates with far tinier males--await curious readers in the back matter.

Farm Animals Teach Life Lessons
People usually are considered to be the trainers and teachers of animals, but animals have much to teach us if we just take the time to watch, listen, and learn.

LARGE PRINT VERSION (16 Point). The farm animals in this book help children learn to read. Pictures help early readers figure out and memorize words. Children learn best when the experience is pleasant, fun, or funny. Animal pictures and easy words are also extremely helpful to the elderly and for dementia patients. Family photo albums sometimes are frustrating for people experiencing memory loss and dementia. Animal photos, however, are simple triggers to things people have experienced in the past. Why animals? Animals don't have criticism or agendas, they are accepting, entertaining, and often comforting.This is a high-quality 8" x 10" book with a hard cover, heavy (70 pound) white paper, and premium color ink. The ink is much better than the standard ink used for most books, so the photographs will be more vivid.
