Apologia Elementary Science books - can you put them in order of difficulty?

According to Apologia's website, all the Elementary Science books are suitable for Grades 1 through 6. But I've noticed one or two people here think that, for example, the Astronomy book is the easiest, and the Human Anatomy and Physiology is the hardest.

 

What is your opinion of the difficulty level of these books? Is it possible to put them in some kind of order?

 

TIA!

I agree with Plain Jane.

 

Astronomy

 

Zoo 1

Zoo 2

Zoo 3

 

Botany

 

A&P

 

I've done Astronomy and the first 2 Zoology books with K-2nd kids, and they absolutely loved them. I tried the Botany with the same ages, and eyes glazed over. It's a fairly gentle book, but there's a lot of stuff in there that is just plain over the heads of the K-2 crowd. A&P, I don't think I would try with anyone under 4th - they can get the general gist of things, but it's really more of a 4th-7th book from what I've seen.

 

Hope that helps!
