Let's-Read-and-Find-Out About Solids, Liquids, and Gases Can you make an ice cube disappear? Put it on a hot sidewalk. It melts into water and then vanishes The ice cube changes from solid to liquid to gas. . . . Read on to find out more about the three states of matter.
My son received this when he was almost 4, and understood the concepts of solid, liquid, and gases by 4.5yo! This describes the concepts in such a way that youngsters can easily understand, but won't bore older children. I would highly recommend this book, along with other books in the "Let's-Read-And-Find-Out Science" series.
Great book!

Ordered this for my son's 6th birthday and he really enjoyed it! It's great at explaining it at a "kid level" and he giggled througout the book!
Science Made Fun & Easy

I have a 6-yr old boy and a 7-yr old girl. It's very rare to find anything that they agree on but with What Is the World Made Of? I was able to find a book that both of them would enjoy and learn from at the same time. The easy-to-follow language made it easy for them both to follow along. The fun pictures and odd bits of humor kept them interested and wanting to know more. A fantastic find & one I hope to be able to use for quite some time.
Great for Teachers!!!

This book is an excellent way to introduce solids, liquids, and gases. I used it with a 3rd grade class and it was perfect!
wonderful science/literature connection
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
this is an excellent literature connection for young children studying the concept of matter. it works well with the foss science module, "solids and liquids" for students in grades one and two.
