Synopsis:

A curious kid discovers how magnification and density make her favorite collectible possible.

After starting to collect snow globes with the help of her grandmother, Lily has questions. She wants to know who invented them, what the snow is made of, and how the tiny scenes look so magical when she peers inside. As she researches and experiments, Lily learns about light waves, magnification, and density―all while gathering ingredients to make her own snow globe.
