Science Books for Kids
Don't Sit on That Cloud!
Birds can fly. Dragonflies can zip. Butterflies can float. But what about kids with no wings at all? Three clever friends have a brilliant idea: if clouds can drift up in the sky without feathers, maybe they can too! Could a fluffy cloud really carry a kid? Could a kite string tug them up past the treetops? With big dreams and even bigger glasses, these three are ready to try anything. This decodable reader practices the ’ea’ sound in words like ‘dream,’ ’leap,’ ‘reach,’ and ‘scream.’
Push Harder, It's an Elephant!
How heavy is an elephant, really? When one stubborn elephant refuses to budge from a little red cart, Child sets off counting everything in sight - two warm eggs at the neighbor’s, four wheels that won’t neigh, a spider with eight wiggling legs, and a pheasant dressed in dazzling colors. Can counting all the way to ten give Child the strength for one more giant push? This decodable reader practices the eigh phonogram in words like ’eight,’ ‘weigh,’ ’neigh,’ and ‘sleigh.’
