An author I looked up for nonfiction is Patricia Lauber. She has written over 65 nonfiction books for young readers. Her books are based on Science. She has written books about dinosaurs, bats, dolphins, dogs, volcanoes, earthquakes, the solar system, the earthworm, and many more. She has stated that she loves to write nonfiction books, because this is what interest her and she gets to learn more information about them. Patricia Lauber has also stated that when she discovers something really interesting, she must share it with others. Not only does she write nonfiction books, she also writes children books.
Here is a lesson plan for one of her books: Be a Friend to Trees. You could use it for Arbor Day. http://sftrc.cas.psu.edu/LessonPlans/Forestry/UsesTree.html.
Here's a lesson plan that goes along with another one of her books: Seeds: Pop, Stick, Glide. It's to show the children the life cycle of a plant. http://www.lessonplanspage.com/ScienceArtMDYarnIllustrationsOfTheLifeCycleOfFloweringPlants34.htm
