It was a pleasant surprise to find this review of The Shocking Truth about Energy on the blog Simply Science: Using books for easy science lessons. I certainly can’t argue with this quote:
“The publisher says the book is for younger audiences, but I loved it and can see it read by older kids, too. It is succinct and complete, and a wonderful resource. I’d love to see it in every library in this energy-conscious age.”
It is funny how publishers put an age range on books that isn’t necessarily that accurate. It may have something to do with how they organize their catalog or some other arcane reason. Guess I should ask one of these days.
Here is an activity page for this book. Enjoy!
Thanks for mentioning my blog. I loved this book. I formerly taught middle school and it would have worked for those lessons, too!
ReplyDeleteYou're very welcome, Shirley, glad to find your blog. Quite a few of my books are used by older students, which is fine by me!
