Zusammenfassung:Biomimicry is a field of engineering that uses nature to solve human problems. Young students can learn about biomimicry through picture books, which allow them to ask questions and develop solutions. These books create a context for students to engage with the topic and spark curiosity and creativity. The article presents a content analysis of multiple picture books on biomimicry and selects three books for first-grade students. The activities based on these books help students explore science and improve their literacy skills.
