Better late than never I guess. I missed the NY Times Children’s Books section in teh 5/10 Book Review but my mother brought it with her and left it so I am posting a tiny bit about it.
They review/suggest a few books for kids and many of them have a theme related to this blog including:
- Two books on Darwin. See “Darwin’s Prenup” by Bruce Barcott in which he reviews Charles and Emma: The Darwins’ Leap of Faith
and Animals Charles Darwin Saw (Explorers (Chronicle Books))
Both sound good.
- Three books on the oceans and Jacques-Yves Cousteau. See “Undersea Pioneer” by Lawrence Downes who reviews Manfish: A Story of Jacques Cousteau
(which my kids love), The Fantastic Undersea Life of Jacques Cousteau
and Down, Down, Down: A Journey to the Bottom of the Sea
all of which also sound good.
