Great book!
I'm trying to get my kids to diversify what they read, and not read just fiction. This is a great non fiction book for age 7 and 9 to read and enjoy.

Making Connections with the Galapogoes Island - fun and informative.
A great informational book for primary and early intermediate aged readers. informative, well-written and interesting. Facts that interested listeners/readers include: the origin of the name Galápagoes (Spanish for tortoise), and the other species of animals on the islands particularly the blue-footed boobie birds. Pair this book with other informative books about the Galapagos, but be sure to read Marsha Diane Arnold's Galápagos Girl - Galapagueña (Lee & Low, 2018). Read both of them while wearing the blue-footed booby bird socks - being sold to save the endangered animals and morph it all into a discussion of endangered and extinct animals. More connections for more reading and research.

Great starting point for research project.
My daughter (11) really enjoyed this book. She used it as part of her research for a paper and this book in particular sparked an interest in Darwin’s research. We’ve used several books in this series for school projects. They are great for our 9-11 year olds to get an overview of different subjects.

Full of detail, great for kids!
I'm a teacher and bought this so I could 1) learn about the Galapagos before talking about them and 2) keep a copy of the book in my classroom. It's a great read for kids aged 7-13, depending on their reading ability. It's well-organized and interesting.

Great non-fiction book for children about the amazing Galapagos Islands! 🐢
Good factual information about the Galapagos Islands written in chapters with some black and white illustrations. (For grades 2-4)This non-fiction book would be great for learning about this part of the world or a child going to the Galapagos Islands with their parents.A wonderful place to visit ~ fantastic trip!
