This series utilizes a high-interest, magazine-like design and approach, containing unique and varied text features, in order to appeal to this age group (11-14+) and deliver content in a high-interest format. Each title takes on a key and cohesive area of content found in national Life Science content curriculum standards and delivers that information using colorful illustrations, photos, quizzes, charts, graphs, and summaries, allowing for a greater sense of interactivity and easier readability. Digestible chunks of information, along with clear introductions and summaries of important content in each chapter, encourage reluctant and struggling readers to approach, read, and learn important, tested science content.
