Reviews

[Natalie]

Easy to read and written at a level that kids will understand.

Great photographs and diagrams that make the information more accessible.

I thought it was a bit repetitive.

[Jamie O]

This book easily breaks down genetics, has a good glossary, and I love the addition of the "want to know more?" page. I will definitely be using the suggested books and websites provided!
