Taste buds on our tongue let us taste foods that are salty, sweet,
sour, or bitter. This vibrant title explores the sense of taste -
from how our taste buds work to the different types of tastes.
Readers also discover how our sense of taste is closely related to
our sense of smell.
This title has "mass" appeal! Colorful images and clear and concise
text invite readers to look at the property of weight. Using
familiar examples, readers learn how to tell the difference between
heavy and light objects and learn how people weigh objects. Readers
then identify, describe, and compare materials based on weight.
Light, sound, taste, and smell shape our lives dramatically, but
how does this happen? How can a far-away noise elicit a joyful
memory or a cry? How can the smell of cookies take you back to
early childhood? These powerful stimuli exist in our environment,
yet remain neutral until our brain decodes the necessary
information into meaningful senses. In other words, light is
transformed into vision, and sound into hearing, by the brain and
the brain only. ""Seeing, Hearing, and Smelling the World"" reveals
the phenomena underlying our senses, with a brief discussion of
what can go wrong (for example, hearing colors or seeing sounds).
This book will reacquaint readers with their senses and challenge
their fundamental understanding of the amazing human mind.
Searching is a story that helps us value what we have around us and
sometimes fail to see.
Look who's hiding under those sticks. Say hello to the fluffy
chicks. Follow the friendly puppy as he scampers around the
farmyard saying hello to all the animals. Toddlers will love to
stroke the soft, velvety animals and to join in making their
noises. Say Hello to the Animals is a sturdy board book perfect for
toddlers, with bright illustrations by Tim Warnes and a catchy
rhyming text written by Ian Whybrow.
