Read and find out about light in this colorfully illustrated
nonfiction picture book.
Light is all around you! It comes in many forms: Light from the
sun brightens our day, firelight flickers in the night, electric lights fill
our homes--and some animals even make the sea glow.
With lively illustrations and diagrams and clear, engaging text,
this Level 2 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out picture book is an engaging look into the
many ways that light brightens our world.
Now rebranded with a new cover look, this book features rich
vocabulary and uses simple, fun diagrams to clearly explain concepts like light
speed. This book also includes a find out more section with activities that
show why plants need light to grow and why our shadows look different
throughout the day.
This is a clear and appealing science book for early elementary
age kids, both at home and in the classroom. Both text and artwork were vetted
for accuracy by Russell P. Leslie, Professor and Associate Director of the
Lighting Research Center at the Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute.
This is a Level 2 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out, which means the book
