The talents
of educator and author. G. J. Griffiths meet once again in the fantasy si-fi
children’s book Ants in Space. When
playing in the garden Laura and her sister Eva discover the world of alien ants
who take them through an exciting space adventure in their miniaturized world.
The
enriched content is filled with an introduction to both scientific concepts and
unique ways of meeting the challenges of cultural differences.
The story
and reading level is a best fit for ages eight and above. However, the
illustrations are geared toward younger children. This inongruence may lessen
the enthusiasm of older children.
As a bonus, Mr.
Griffiths provides oral reading suggestions to parents and teachers to heighten
interest of younger readers.
Five stars
for the quality of writing and excellent illustrations.
