Get Kids Interested in Animal Science With What If You Had Books!

Feb 14, 2022

Jam-packed with exciting illustrations and fascinating facts, the What If You Had... series is perfect for introducing your child to the nonfiction genre — and more specifically, animal science. Kids will love exploring the animal world and learning about why each animal’s features are just right for them.

For instance, What If You Had an Animal Tongue!? compares different animal tongues like a komodo dragon's yellow tongue and a woodpecker's long, thorny tongue.

Nonfiction plays an important role in your child’s education, especially as they move from learning to read to reading to learn. Cultivating a passion for reading nonfiction from an early age develops kids’ critical thinking skills and encourages them to be curious and ask questions about the world around them.
