I purchased the entire set of these books "Everything You Need..." and find that they are the BEST, absolutely the BEST resources I have found in a compact book. I highly recommend these books, not only for homeschooling families but for anyone who wants to "know more"!!

I just purchased this book and I am using it as a supplement to Jerry Bobrow's CSET muliple subject test prep book (Cliffs Test Prep) and it is great! It's written in a simple language, and contains all sorts of review,pictures, charts, etc. It has been MANY years since I have studied science and this so far is helping me remember all the material neccessary for passing the test.

This book, like the others in the series, is full of bright pictures, diagrams and charts.
The chapters are:
What's Life All About? (with an easy to understand description of the various plant and animal kingdoms)
The Animal Kingdom
The Plant Kingdom
Ecology and the Landscapes of Life
Planet Earth
Outer Space
The Physical World
The basic concepts are simply explained, with helpful graphics, so it is very easy to understand.
From the history of plants on earth to the effects of erosion on the earth and oceans, to the table of elements and the laws of motion, every concept is easy to grasp.
This is a wonderful book, and my kids really enjoy it.
Highly recommended for children from 2nd through 8th grade. (Although the book says 4 - 6 grades.)
