Lifetimes

such a neat book for a calssroom or for home

I love this book, and use it to introduce children to non-fiction books. The one page layout is perfect for short attention spans and the questions and things to think about on the bottom of each page are great story starters or follow-up activities.

What a cute and informative book

Interesting facts, great illustrations, and wonderful life lessons. I used the book to introduce a science center where students will develop some foundational appreciation for living things before we learn about conservation of our natural resources. The students (grade 6) were very engaged in the reading aloud of the pages--especially given it was a non-fiction book!

My students and I really love this book! They have fun predicting the lifetimes of the plants and animals.

Excellent book for children to understand the finite nature of life.

We use it in the classroom to teach kids how to find the main idea and supporting details in non-fiction text. Awesome book!!

The perfect gentle way of addressing the subject of death, with children.
