(3) K-3 Jump into Science series. Illustrated by Carla Golembe. This well-written, detailed description of the honeybee is given added appeal by the colorful, full-page gouache illustrations of a girl observing bees and drawing diagrams of them. The six-week-long life of the worker bee is depicted, from the egg through a series of working stages to her final task of collecting nectar. An activity ("Dance like a Honeybee") is appended.

(3) K-3 Jump into Science series. Illustrated by Carla Golembe. This book provides a clear and detailed description of the sun, including its composition, importance to life on Earth, and place in the solar system. Simple comparisons help readers visualize the sun's actual size and distance from Earth. Bright gouache illustrations featuring two children and their cat effectively combine whimsy with clarity. A simple suggested activity is included.
