Silkworm (Life Cycle of a . . .) Paperback – August 15, 2009

Great book for looking at the life of silkworms with your children. We used this book whilst studying James and the Giant Peach by Roald Dahl. It was a perfect supplement for a quick side study. The photos are large and the writing easy to read so great for young independent readers also.All you need to know about silkworms in this short book.Highly recommended.

This book was the best book on silkworms that I have read to my first grade class. It was grade level appropriate, not too wordy, and had beautiful illustrations. The information that I read to my class was excellent and concise.

This book was a great addition to my second grade science life cycle books.

Perfect!

Do you like gross stuff? Then you should read Life Cycle of a Silkworm. One reason is it is gross. For example it has a gross silkworm on the front cover of the book. Also the book has chapters. For example it has Meet the Silkworm, and Egg. Another reason it’s about a life cycle of a Silkworm. It goes like this: egg, larva, pupa, silk moth. I think Life Cycle of a Silkworm is the best book ever.By Annie First Grader 1A
