c. I like this book because of the simplicity of the txt and the pictures that correlate with the text. The text for example is very simple and to the point. For example, the text said “the dragon fly is laying its eggs.” Saying it using different and difficult terminology would make the book very complicated and hard to understand for young aged children. I like the pictures because they go with exactly the text says. For example, “The dragon fly is laying its eggs”. There is a picture of the dragon fly laying its eggs above the text. The point of this books is to inform students more about dragon fly’s. The students get to see the different places those insect like, what they eat, and etc.
