The Hair That Split the Light A Kid's First Look at Wave-Particle Duality and the Magic of Quantum Light What happens when a curious kid, his scientist mum, and a single strand of hair meet in a cozy home office filled with lasers and science experiments? A sparkling surprise-and a kid-friendly look at one of the strangest discoveries about light! In this thoughtful and playful picture book, young readers step inside the story with Emory and his mum, a scientist working on sending messages through space with lasers. But when Mum's hair accidentally crosses the laser beam, Emory notices something magical. The light splits into shimmering stripes, revealing that it can behave as tiny particles and gentle waves at exactly the same moment! Perfect for curious explorers ages 6-9, The Hair That Split the Light introduces wave-particle duality, a fascinating quantum physics concept, in a gentle, playful, and imagination-friendly way. Rather than overwhelming readers with complicated details, it warmly invites children to wonder and explore the exciting questions scientists ask every day.
