Reviews
What causes wind? This question is answered and other motion-related topics are discussed in this outstanding book. The striking photographs on each page support the narrative about the nature of motion and the forces that cause it. The book concisely covers such topics as Earth's movement, wind and water as forces for motion, and electricity as a source of power for motion. The photography is up-close and clear so that children will can easily see what the text is explaining. An activity on building a pinwheel is included, and readers who do it can observe motion. The book includes a glossary of science-specific vocabulary, a list of other recently published books about motion for more reading, a list of websites to visit, and an index. I can't wait to use All Kinds of Motion with my younger students in a whole-group setting. It's appropriate for kindergarten through grade 1, has a reading level of 1, and is an Accelerated Reader book. Teachers will be able to use this outstanding book for years to come when discussing motion and forces of motion.-- NSTA
