This is a wonderful picture book that teaches the role that eggs play in the life cycle of different species. It shows all types of animals that come from eggs and how they grow and develop. This book could be used for a thematic unit teaching about the different types of animals and where they came from.

A lovely picture book about the role eggs play in the life cycle of several species. My one quibble with the illustrations is that it can be difficult to judge the relative sizes of the eggs and animals depicted. (I say this not because I think it was handled particularly badly here, but because I've seen it done expertly, elsewhere.) Still, this book is an excellent introduction to eggs and a worthwhile supplement to a juvenile biology collection. ( )
