Another new series in the Lighting Bolt Books put out from Lerner Publications Company! This time the emphasis is "Your Five Senses"- sight, touch, taste, smell, and hearing. From the three books I received from this collection, I'm hooked! I definitely have plans to purchase the other two to make a complete set! Hopefully you'll find them just as useful as I have!
Boothroyd, Jennifer.

What is Touch?

Lerner Publishing Company.
Summary from Barnes & Noble:
A furry dog. A scaly lizard. Your sense of touch lets you feel these things and more. But how does your sense of touch work? And how does it help you? Read this book to find out!
Boothroyd, Jennifer.
What is Taste?
October 2009.
Lerner Publishing Company.
Summary from Barnes & Noble:
Salty popcorn. Sweet watermelon. Your tongue lets you taste these things and more. But how does your sense of taste work? And how does it help you? Read this book to find out!
These books are very informative and would act as the perfect introduction when teaching about each of the five senses. They give children a basic description of what the sense is... what the sense does... how the sense protects you. Also included in each is an activity related to the specific targeted sense and a list of additional reading suggestions! That's useful! I could definitely see myself using these in a classroom!
