Ball, Nate. Let’s
Investigate with Nate: The Water Cycle, illustrated by Wes Hargis. Harper, 2017.
$17.99. Content: G. PICTURE BOOK.
Before the Science Museum opens on Saturdays a group of kids
goes on scientific adventures with scientist Nate Ball. Today they learned about the water cycle and
all things liquid. What happens to very
hot water? It boils. What happens to very cold water? It freezes.
What is half of your body made of?
Water. The story is littered with
interesting questions and fun facts.
They start their journey in the clouds where they learn about
molecules. Rain becomes puddles, puddles
becomes a stream, and a stream can lead to a lake. Estuaries, evaporation, snowflakes, ground
water, and subterranean rivers are also covered. A hands-on science experiment: Make Your Own
Cloud completed with instructions and suggested observations. The book also includes a very helpful
glossary of the terms used. Recommend to
fans of The Magic School Bus.
EL-ADVISABLE.
