And that's a bail! Some interesting stuff, but a lot of stuff so over my head that I was just reading words with no meaning.

But, yay, got a bingo! 😁

I started this one before the total eclipse in April of this year. I lost interest after that and just picked it up. It was definitely interesting, especially the history of how eclipses were used to help map the size and shape of the world centuries ago. It's my own fault for losing interest after seeing the eclipse. Definitely recommend if you'd like to learn more about eclipses.

AvidReader25 @Suet624 it was unbelievable! I think reading about it just doesn‘t have the same impact and so I lost interest. The eclipse itself was incredible. 1w

An excellent idea & the concept. The diagrams/drawings are fantastic - even a few pages that unfold for a much larger images.

I so very much wanted to enjoy this - even borrowed from hubby‘s shelves. The explanations are so oversimplified that it makes reading difficult, imo. I really disliked & fail to understand the name changes (i.e. bathroom to water room🤦🏻‍♀️)

TieDyeDude I love the other books from this author, but Thing Explainer did not work. I get the concept, but poor execution. 1w

The book “The Selfish Gene”, created by Richard Dawkins, is an award winning book about the understanding of natural selection and evolution. Richard Dawkins explains and describes how genes could be both selfish and altruistic, while providing basic context behind the information to better help the reader understand. The book is packed with knowledge about evolution and natural selection, even going as far as explaining life from the start.

Gabe.DeCastro The book goes in depth about evolution, genes, relationships, and animals. Richard Dawkins describes animals, plants, and microorganisms to be machines. Machines for genes to ensure for their survival. To ensure the continuity of the gene, the machines (the animal, plant, microorganisms) must be selfish in their own way. This selfishness is thoroughly explained throughout the book while also bringing up how machines could also altruistic. 2w
Gabe.DeCastro The book is perfect for those who are interested in the thought of evolution and natural selection, as it explains the process and other scientific information that back it up. 2w

This book was published in 2020. This book provides a lot of information on the planets in our solar system. This book can be good to introduce space before the unit. Many students are interested in space and want to learn more about it. This book could become a resource to those students.

I thought this book was very informational and gave a detailed description of all the different types of planets in our solar system.
