From School Library Journal
K-Gr 4—Prolific children's science book author Thomas explores natural elements in this encouraging STEM series. Each volume opens with two poems that gently introduce the subject. Each text goes on to approach its topic through a mix of basic science, hands-on experiments, and literature, specifically unattributed folktales from Native American (Wind) or Aboriginal Australian lore (Water). The simple yet informative crafts consist of common household items, but younger children will likely still need adult assistance. Morgan adds whimsy with retro-inspired cartoon illustrations. While the artwork brings depth and fun to the text, the visuals that accompany the Abenaki legend in Wind depict multiple teepees, which are not only historically inaccurate but also a reinforcement of a stereotype. VERDICT Public or school libraries should consider Water only.—Holly Boyer, Reston, VA
