good non fiction for elementary reader

my 9 & 10 yr old 4th grade daughter's school reading contract required her to read a specific # of both fiction & non fiction bks @ her particular reading level, & then pass Accelerated Reader (AR) tests on vocabulary & content; most girls gravitate naturally toward fiction & are less drawn to non fiction; this is true w/my daughter; libraries @ both elementary schools she attended PreK - 4th grade had much wider fiction selections than non fiction; aside from biographies, non fiction tended to be dry science & nature topics that were less than captivating; biography series for kids abound & plenty are good, but multiple series cover the same basic group of people; I found the bk whilst searching for more unique non fiction; this was a welcome change, as it entertained & informed, rather than put us to sleep; she put it w/her other kid reference bks on human body & has referred to it often; very educational in an age when germs are hot topic; we have another title in this series, which is also good; my guess is the whole series would be of equal quality; inexpensive paperbacks, they are short & easy to read, but informative & kid/lay person friendly; subject matter would appeal to both girls & boys of elementary school age
