Argus - A Review

 

                                   Michelle Knudsen and Andrea Wesson (illus.)

Question, Research, Hypothesis, Experiment, Observation, Analysis, Conclusion, Presentation. These are the steps involved in a scientific project and Sally follows the above steps to the T, but much to her chagrin, her results are disproportionately out of the ordinary.

In her classroom project, while the other kids have been given chicken eggs to test and analyze as part of a class science project, Sally ends up getting a green dragon egg. Her results are skewed. But at the end, she ends up loving her dragon and the two make a great pair

Argus is a hilarious take on "embracing change". 

While we don't expect change, change is constant and the only way we can prepare for it is to expect it in the most unexpected situations.

Very cartoony and yet detailed, this book is a fun read for children aged 4 - 6 years.
