Review # 1 was written on 2012-05-24 00:00:00 Bradley Calcaterra This is a great science book that can introduce students to food webs and the importance of food energy. It describes many different food webs, long and short! I also really liked how Lauber talked about the many different food sources animals may choose from. On page 17, Lauber talked about how chipmunks may eat nuts, seeds, berries, or buds that are on the bottom of the food chain. Or, they may eat insects, snails, or other small animals that got their energy from the bottom of the food chain as well. I also really liked how Lauber named new animals that students may not be aware of and how Keller added arrows to show the direction of the food chain’s energy.

Review # 2 was written on 2021-02-13 00:00:00 Michael Padula This was a pretty straightforward informational book about what a food chain and a food web are. I thought some pages were pretty text heavy. Also, the author did some written gymnastics to make sure not to show humans eating anything cute. I wish decomposers had been included.
