Does your child wonder why hand warmers get hot, why ice packs feel cold, or what makes a fire burn? This clearly written nonfiction guide unlocks the fascinating science of heat and energy - one step at a time - using plain language, real-world examples, and concepts matched to young learners.

Inside this guide, young scientists will discover:

  • What thermochemistry is and why it matters in everyday life
  • The difference between exothermic reactions (like burning wood) and endothermic reactions (like dissolving salt)
  • How scientists measure heat using enthalpy and calorimetry
  • What activation energy is and how it controls how fast reactions happen
  • The three ways heat travels - conduction, convection, and radiation - with relatable examples
  • What happens to energy during phase changes like melting and boiling
  • An introduction to entropy and why some reactions happen on their own
  • How thermochemistry connects to cooking, weather, the human body, and more
Who this is for: Parents, teachers, and homeschoolers looking for a focused, grade-appropriate introduction to thermal energy and chemical reactions for readers ages 8 to 12. Each chapter builds on the last, making complex ideas accessible without oversimplifying the real science.

Perfect for:

  • Curious readers in grades 3 through 6 who love science
  • Homeschool chemistry and physical science units
  • Classroom supplemental reading and STEM enrichment
  • A thoughtful gift for a young science enthusiast
If your child has ever asked why things get hot or cold - this is where the answers start. Scroll up and grab your copy today.
