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

"It is time to learn about solids and liquids."--

"Did you know rocks and lava are made of the same elements? Rocks are solid and lava is a liquid! Explore the properties of solids through colorful photos and carefully leveled text."-- 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."--

In this Book 1 of the three part Chemistry series, basics like the characteristics of the proton, the characteristics of the neutron, the nucleus of an atom, and the strong force are introduced in a way that's highly memorable, highly educational, and funny too!

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.

"In this interactive picture book, young readers squish, squeeze, and jiggle matter on the page, using their imagination to conduct simple lab experiments. They learn that matter comes in all shapes and sizes and can change from solid to liquid to gas. Back matter includes a real-world experiment for investigating matter"-- Provided by publisher.
