About the Author:
Darlene R Stille is the author of several nonfiction books for children.
From Booklist:
Gr. 3^-5. Making good use of diagrams, Stille does an admirable job of explaining the complex interactions between the brain, nerve cells, and muscles. Working from the general to the specific and using concrete examples whenever appropriate, she succeeds in relaying basic information on the subject in a way that will be understandable for the target audience. Older kids who struggle with science concepts or have a reading disability will also be encouraged by the book's easy format, which features large type, loads of diagrams and photographs, and short, simple sentences. With many schools moving away from textbooks, teachers can use this to introduce vocabulary and basic concepts and feel comfortable that the majority of middle-grade children will not find it too difficult. Bibliography, including online sites; glossary. Lauren Peterson
