DESCRIPTION:
The scientific material is delivered in a vocabulary that has been carefully crafted to meet the needs and capabilities of students in the third to sixth grades. "In all three, the layouts are beautifully done, with attractive, large, and varied typefaces and bright and clear artwork. I recommend these three titles for elementary school libraries."
Kids will enjoy reading about different species of mosquitoes and -- most importantly -- why they bite! Topics include: mosquito bodies and senses; where mosquitoes lay their eggs; the differences between male and female mosquitoes; the diseases mosquitoes transmit and how to avoid mosquito bites.. Ages 6 to 12 years. Mosquitoes have lived on Earth for over 30 million years! Close-up photographs and detailed illustrations depict the amazing changes a mosquito goes through in four stages: egg, larva, pupa, and adult
Mosquitos: Ubiquitous blight of the earth Mosquitos now inhabit most of the earth, including the Arctic. They may only live three weeks to five months, but the nasty little critters have been on earth since the dinosaurs and do not appear likely to go away soon. Ouch!Mosquitos give credence to the argument that everything was put here to be eaten.Did you know the female mosquito mate only once, but the male mates as often as he can? Enough of thatWe are cautioned that only a few of the 3,000 species bite humans, but that's plenty!Lots of super clear color photography. Kudos to the photog. The Life Cycle of a Mosquito Now I know the rest of the story about those little blood suckers. I wish I had bought this book 65 years ago. Thanks
