Responding to the call of educators for easy-to-read nonfiction for younger students, Lerner created the Pull Ahead Books series. With higher-level thinking questions built into each text, this innovative series engages new readers in their own learning. Tested and refined by primary-grade science teachers and their students, each book in this series contains an interactive opening; crisp, close-up color photographs; a map activity; an animal-body diagram; a short glossary; a Hunt-and-Find (pre-index skills) section; and kid-friendly information about authors and photographers.
