(Heinemann Educational Books - Library Division, Nov. 20, 2001)
A study of the dragonfly. It is part of a series designed to support children's investigations into life processes at Key Stage 1. At this level, children should understand: that animals move, feed, grow, use their senses and reproduce; that living things can be grouped according to observable similarities and differences; and that there are different kinds of animals in the local environment. Each title in this series seeks to provide a simple yet comprehensive view of a particular creature and covers different types, size, appearance, birth and reproduction, growth, feeding, predators, length of life and movement. Series features include "bug maps" and simple questions based on information given in the spreads. Each spread builds on the information given in previous ones.
