This would be good for older kids who loves science and very interested in butterflies, winter birds, spring frogs, and summer ladybugs.

Citizen Scientist by Loewe Griffin Burns, 2012. This book was set up like a chapter book. It is very lengthy but it did include pictures. There is something for everyone in this book.

Citizen Scientists by Loree Burns was written in 2012. This book is about a bunch of different science experiments and activities to do with kids. Between the classroom and your own backyard, there are so many activities the book has for kids to do. I think this is a great book to read for information on activities to do with your kids!

“New York CIty's Central Park has hosted a Christmas Bird Count every single year since 1990. The counts were once the passion of one or two avid New York birders.“

I like how the book included real life photographs of the topics that they were talking about. There were pictures of children, which made it relatable for other children to look at.

I liked this book and I think it is very educational. However, there is just a lot of information on each page, so I feel like it could be a little overwhelming for a child to read. This could be a great book to read to a class as a whole.

I liked how much information this book gave but I felt the structure of the book made it boring to read.
