Book Review: "Home (Spectacular STEAM for Curious Readers)" by Isabelle Simler
Rating: 5 Stars
"Home" by Isabelle Simler is a delightful and enchanting exploration of the diverse dwellings of twenty-seven fascinating animals from around the world. From the hermit crab's unique shell to the beaver's intricate dam, this book takes readers on a poetic journey through the remarkable homes created by different creatures.
Simler's lyrical poetry beautifully captures the science behind nesting and homebuilding, making it an engaging read for both young and old nature enthusiasts. The detailed illustrations intricately bring to life the habitats of these creatures, drawing readers into a world of wonder and creativity.
One of the standout features of "Home" is its ability to connect biological concepts such as life cycles and camouflage to the animal homes showcased in the book. This not only educates readers about the natural world but also sparks curiosity and appreciation for the ingenuity of our animal neighbors.
With its captivating storytelling, stunning artwork, and informative back matter, "Home" is more than just a children's book – it is a celebration of the beauty and diversity of nature. I highly recommend this book as a perfect gift for anyone who appreciates the wonders of the animal kingdom. It is a true masterpiece that will inspire readers to marvel at the extraordinary places creatures call home.
