The PDF was given to me to make an unbiased free review.
This children’s picture book on lakes has some lovely pictures. I particularly like how it transitions from different types of bodies of waters and when it shows people using water to irrigate or play. Other scenes like shopping and cleaning up the beach were wonderful.
The book is informative and includes details one might find when researching, putting together a book report or maybe reading pamphlets and such. It might have been beneficial to tie in characters who ask questions and engage in the information discovery in a back and forth kind of a way. It would also help to keep short attention spans turned in and engaged to such important information, while personally connecting to the message with their hearts and not just their minds.

THE WONDERS OF LAKES is like an easy-to-understand lesson in environmental studies for children.
The book offers plenty of topics related to lakes and I am sure young environmentalists will have fun diving into more details.
The author delivered the "wonders" in a simple manner planting gently the seed of knowledge that lakes are aquatic ecosystems of wide-ranging importance for many living creatures including humans.
No doubt, the glossary at the end is of great help, as the book contains some scientific, therefore difficult for children to comprehend words.
The illustrations bring the story to life, add a sense of adventure, and improve the readability of the title.
I received a copy of the book from the author for free.

I received a free copy from the author. It's a perfect school library resource that can be used when children are taught about the importance of lakes and what role they play in our environment. It's easy to understand and the illustrations are bright and colorful.

This is a non-fiction book for children with some complex scientific terms in it. There's a full glossary and it's empowering for children to learn how their actions can make a difference. A great lesson in cause and effect.
Wonderful illustrations as well.

The language is simple, but the concepts are more appropriate for a first, second, or even third-grader. A second or third-grader could read it easily without snd support and enjoy it if they have a solid background of experience about the environment. The illustrations were perfect.
