APPEALS TO: SOME 

From flying insects, bats and birds, to clouds satellites and the moon and eventually the galaxy, readers take a trip up, learning new science on each page. But then, flip the book over and read about what's below. Starting with the earth's core , through the plates and crust, into the ocean, and through the underground, human and animal homes and soil and the insects who live there. 

There's a lot to read about - a little bit about a lot of things, enough to springboard for more information if the reader is inclined. The realistic full color illustrations were eye-catching and complemented the text. A good "open anywhere and read" book.
