Senses Close-Up is an exciting new addition to the Up-Close imprint. The series is designed to provide information that engages young minds, promotes critical thinking, and builds literacy skills. Each title focuses on one sense and the associated sensory organs and explores how we use the sense in our everyday lives. Readers are encouraged to gain an appreciation for their senses and an understanding of the role our senses play in understanding the world around us. Facts about animal senses provide readers with an opportunity to compare and contrast how people and animals use a specific sense.
