From School Library Journal
Grade 3-6-- Simple principles about the nature of matter are clearly and sometimes humorously explained in this short but effective book. Each chapter begins with a question, some of which initially seem rather silly (e.g., How much does air weigh? Why isn't the Earth egg - shaped or a cube?). Cobb uses these questions as starting points for further discussion of various scientific principles. Included are a fewactivities that children can perform on their own. The book is illustrated with black-and-white cartoon line drawings, which add to the author's lighthearted tone. Despite the fact that an adequate index is included, the book has limited usefulness as a source for reports. It is, however, an excellent book for students who are curious about science and are interested in exploringit on their own. --Todd Morning, Schaumburg Township Pub . Lib . , IL
