A Wasp Is Not a Bee

By Marilyn Singer

Book Overview

Most people know the difference between a cat and a dog. But the differences between certain other animals are not so obviuos, which is why it's so easy to confuse them. You may guess that the insect trying to eat your icecream cone is a bee, but it's probably a yellow-jacket wasp. You may think that the chimp sitting in a tree in the forest is a monkey, but it's really an ape. How can you tell these and other similar animals apart? By using your eyes, ears, and all your senses to observe them--and by reading this book.

Great Book

This book compares different animals such as bees/wasps, spiders/insects, and koala/bears. It gives some basic information on each and compares the differences. This book would be perfect for introducing Venn Diagrams.
