Fascinating physics facts a young scientist needs to know, from one of the most trusted teams in STEM for children!
This kid-friendly introduction to the physics of light covers the basics of solar energy, the electromagnetic spectrum, photon particles, light scattering, and reflection and refraction. Readers will follow along as two children and a cow in a lab coat learn how light works in realistic and imaginative scenarios.
With accessible language, grounded examples, and easy, hands-on experiments you can do with household items, David A. Adler explains the basics of how light travels and bends. Anna Raff’s bright, humorous illustrations make an intimidating topic easy– and fun!– to understand. This colorful picture book is a perfect supplement to lessons on light waves, and a great way to explore the topic at home.
Named a finalist for the AAAS/Subaru SB&F Prize for Excellence in Science Books in the Children’s category, Light Waves is a must-have book for all self-professed science nerds!
