Reviews

The Horn Book Guide

“Vibrant close-up photographs illustrate difficult concepts”
—The Horn Book Guide

School Library Journal

“Each of these introductions explains the relevant state of matter, along with basic vocabulary. The layout is bright with many color photographs featuring children of different ethnicities.”
—School Library Journal

Science Books & Films

“These three books help explain the world around us to elementary school children. . . This series would be a good addition to a school library, classroom science station, or home collection.”
