Children’s Book About Caterpillars: A Kids Picture Book About Caterpillars with Photos and Fun Facts

Caterpillars start out being a little creepy and crawly, but their transformation into a beautiful butterfly or even a moth rivals any makeover program we have today. Let’s take a fascinating journey to explore the world of the caterpillar.

The caterpillar is the larval stage of butterflies and moths. It can be found throughout the world in forests, sandy beaches, mountains and gardens. At this stage the caterpillar is ravenous and will eat constantly. Most are herbivores and will stick to leaves and other plant matter; however, some will also eat fungi, other parts of the plant, animal matter and even other caterpillars.

Children’s Book About Kangaroos: A Kids Picture Book About Kangaroos with Photos and Fun Facts

The kangaroo is a strange looking animal. With its long tail, powerful legs and built-in basinet, this creature is sure to draw more than a few looks. Let’s take a leap “down under” to learn more about this animal.

Kangaroos are indigenous to Eastern Australia where they can be found living in large groups, called troops or herds (mobs in Aussie). These groups can be as large as 50 members consisting of males, females and their young. Living in these large herds helps keep the kangaroo safe against predators such as the wild dogs of Australia called, Dingoes. Man is also a threat to these animals as they are hunted for their meat. Outside of these two predators, kangaroos are also facing the loss of their habitat.

In the wild most kangaroos will eat leaves, shoots, grass and fruit (when available). They like to eat in the early morning or the evening. The kangaroo also has the ability to regurgitate its food and re-chew it – much like the cow. The smaller kangaroo, like the musky rat-kangaroo enjoys a more varied diet of insects like grasshoppers, beetles and insect larvae, as well as seeds and fruit. With the kangaroo’s daily intake of fresh green leaves and grasses, it very seldom needs to drink water.

Children’s Book About The Ocean: A Kids Picture Book About Cars and Trucks with Photos and Fun Facts

We have all probably heard the news about the droughts and lack of clean drinking water for many parts of the world. As sad as that is our planet is not without water, unfortunately it’s just not all drinkable. Let’s take a tour around the oceans of our planet They may be undrinkable, but they are still fascinating.

Seventy percent of earth is made up of water. In other words, if we were to take a cube and fill it with the ocean’s water it would be 621 square miles (1,000 kilometers). The largest ocean is the Pacific, covering around 30 percent of the earth’s surface, while the second largest is the Atlantic at 21 percent, the third is the Indian ocean at 14 percent, then the Arctic and Antarctic respectively. These oceans vary in temperature and are all connected due to the ocean’s currents which circulates the water throughout the world. It’s no surprise that 50 to 80 percent of all life on the planet can be found in the ocean. However, scientists have only explored about 5 percent of what lies within […]

Children’s Book About Penguins: A Kids Picture Book About Penguins with Photos and Fun Facts

Let’s face it, Penguins are cool. These flightless birds waddle and bounce their way through life and are always a favorite a zoos, on television or on the big screen. However, they are so much more than what the cartoons portray them as. In this article we are going to explore the wonderful world of the penguin.

There are 17 species of penguin and not all of them live in the colder climates. They can be found on the Southern hemisphere (SouthPole, and Antarctica), while others prefer the warmer temperatures of South America, Africa, Galapagos Islands, New Zealand and Australia.

These funny black and white birds may not be able to take flight on land, but underwater they are torpedo-shaped dynamos. In fact, the penguin can reach speeds up to 15 miles-per-hour (24 kilometers-per-hour) just by flapping their flippers. The penguin is less clumsy in the water and will spend around 75 percent of its time hunting there.

Children’s Book About Motorcycles: A Kids Picture Book About Motorcycles With Photos and Fun Facts

Like cars, the motorcycle has gained notability over the years and has now become one of our favorite and economically sound ways to get around. However, the first motorcycle was far from our modern ones. Let’s take a look back in history to see where it all began.

The journey of the motorcycle can be traced back to the second half of the 19th century to an improvement made to the safety bicycle. These bicycles had both the front and back wheels of equal size and also incorporated a pedal crank mechanism to the back wheel.

It is not for certain who first invented the motorcycle. Around the time there were many engineers working on the concept; however, it was a blacksmith in Paris named, Pierre Michaux (Michaux and company) who made the first bicycle with pedals called the velocipede. Michaux’s son, Ernest, later went on to add a steam-powered engine to this bicycle in 1867. This was the first step towards our modern-day motorbikes.
