Pass the Energy, Please! - by Barbara Shaw McKinney (Paperback)

About the Book

Rhyming text and illustrations present nature's food chains, from a simple seed to a top predator, demonstrating their natural links.

Book Synopsis

Learning becomes fun with this book about the food chain and transfer of energy connecting all life on earth. Amazing artwork will inspire children in classrooms and at home to appreciate the world around us and feel part of it all.

Each of nature's creatures "passes the energy" in its own unique way. In this upbeat rhyming story, the food chain connects herbivores, carnivores, insects and plants together in a fascinating circle of players. All beings on Earth from the anchovy to the zooplankton depend upon the green plant, which is the hero of the story. Barbara McKinney's special talent shines again (see also A Drop Around the World) for being able to present the science curriculum so concisely, creatively, and cleverly.

Great for anyone looking for books:

• to teach kids about the food web and transfer of energy.
• that make learning fun for kids home schooling!
