Scientist in the Field Series

As you work toward those nonfiction learning targets with kids, keep your eyes open for great nonfiction books.  I've come across a series that might not be new to you, but I love them.  They are part of  the Scientists in the Field Series.  They not only make scientific problems engaging, they introduce kids to real scientists.  They make the work come alive and give kids a sense of who they could become.  Here's one that I think looks really fascinating...maybe it's because I love honey so much.  :-)
