Presents information about physical and chemical changes, outlining the differences between the two types of change and giving relevant examples.

"The air around us is made up of gases. We breathe in some gases. Some gases help balloons float! With age-appropriate critical thinking questions, young readers will learn all about the gases that surround them."-- Provided by publisher.

"Water is wet and it can take the shape of whatever container it's put into! Water can do this because it's a liquid. Learn all about liquids with age-appropriate critical thinking questions and fresh photos."-- Provided by publisher.

Though one of the three most common states of matter on Earth, gases, as they are most often invisible, can be tough for young students to conceptualize. This book offers clarity in the form of straightforward diagrams and easy-to-understand text. Readers will comprehend such physical science concepts as evaporation, condensation, compressibility, fluidity, and volume with ease.

"Using the new Next Generation Science Standards (NGSS), the My World of Science series provides the earliest readers with background on key STEM concepts. States of Matter explores basic chemistry and the states of solid, liquid, and gas in a simple, engaging way that will help readers develop word recognition and reading skills. Includes a glossary and index."--

This book in the Primary Physical Science series is full of surprising facts and hands-on activities to help kids explore solids, liquids and gases.

This light-hearted, scientifically accurate book turns Chemistry 101 into a delightful tale of universal friendship! Learn the basics of chemistry using simple rhyming sentences, vibrantly colorful science pictures, and engaging, energetic characters. You'll learn about the structure of an atom; protons, neutrons, and electrons; charge and mass properties; molecules and compounds; covalent and ionic bonds; the periodic table; and so much more.

Which materials can be squashed? What can we make with those materials? Real world examples and practical projects help young readers discover material properties.

This book focuses on how experiments are conducted using the scientific method. The periodic table is introduced along with descriptions of mixtures, solutions, and compounds.

"Uses popular cartoon character Wile E. Coyote to demonstrate science concepts involved with states of matter"--Provided by publisher."
