I've been searching for science books that provide content at a range of levels. I'm starting with picture books, but I'll be looking for other books to add as I'm searching. My goal is quality content. There are plenty of people publishing books, but not all manage to provide accurate useful content. I am including picture books that combine fantasy characters with non-fiction content. For my purposes if the content is accurate, I'm fine with some entertainment value engaging the learner with the material. However, as I stated the accuracy and amount of information covered is important to me.
