“Lifetimes” is a neat book that tells about how long different things live.  One of the things with the shortest life is a mayfly.  They only live for one day!  That isn’t long at all!  They lay lots of eggs in that day though and when the eggs hatch fish eat them.  I guess they are kind of important since they feed the fish.

My favorite thing they showed us in the book was the Venus flytrap.  I think those are pretty cool.  We looked those up on the computer and watched one snap shut.  I would like to see that for real.  Those live eighteen years.

“Lifetimes” is a good book to learn about animals and things.  I never knew how long some of these things lived before.
