"The illustrations add to the humorous flair of the poetry, with buggy-eyed fish, cuddly cats, and a mysterious man in the moon. This collection will be a welcome addition to any easy-reader collection or to the classroom science shelves, and teachers will find the individual poems useful for adding a literature component to science class."
Kirkus Reviews


"Attractive, brightly colored two-page paintings show the subject of the poem in its natural setting."
School library Journal


"This really is a great choice for home and school, and would be a real boon to those parents, who themselves don't know the answers to these questions. Simple watercolor illustrations add a bit of humor and whimsy to the answers to many of Natures Mysteries. A Dial Easy-to-Read, Level 3, that could be used to support science programs, and also as a great way to use a poetic format to introduce nonfiction material.
