There is another 2ndhand bookstore (run by an Indian family) I visit at Bras Basah Complex, think at level 3 or 4. The one that faces the escalator sells sec sch books, their other store (same level, round the corner, next to a Chinese bookstore) has pri sch books.

If you tell the bookstore staff what you need, they can find for you.

i think u're referring to Book Point.

Hi Jedamum,

I bought that ‘My Pals are here’ Science book before my son went to P3, hoping it will stimulate his interest in Science. He told me he was flipping through for the pictures !!! Not believing him, I went through it and found that it wasn’t informative and helpful…now those 2 books are white elephants on the shelf. :x
Personally feel that this publisher ‘My Pals Are Here’ is not very helpful. EPH, SAP or else Fairfield Publishing is better.

Hi,

I read in Janet Sim’s guide book that plants move by themselves. This concept appears in several of the MCQ questions in the Diversity Book.
How can plants move by themselves?

Yes, Plants move by themselves- towards light source or climbers curling towards a support. Whereas Animals move from place to place. So the key difference is \"from place to place\".

Yes I agree, My Pals is just filled with pictures, not much information. I like the Marshall Cavendish guidebook. Do you know of any other good guidebooks?

I've just bought fairfield book publishers : Your Companion to Science - a complete guide to psle.

My verdict: Very comprehensive, with more information than required in the syllabus. However, it is facts after facts - so can be rather dry and boring for pupils, plus the book has no colours at all!

This bk is useful for me as a tutor or for pupils who can focus, read with understanding and remember these facts and know when to use the facts.

Just my 2-cts worth comment

Can get the \"My Pals are here, science booaster volume A and B\" by Marshall Cavendish. (is that the guidebook you're referring to ?)
Pictures and information.
