The science of forces might seem too complicated for early elementary readers to understand. However, breaking this physics topic down into its most basic elements--pushed and pulls--young readers are able to grasp essential elementary science curriculum topics and have fun while doing so! The simple, focused text is paired with photographs of physics in action in the real world. This invites readers to think about how science plays a part in their everyday lives. In addition, readers are invited to try age-appropriate activities that teach them even more about this foundational science concept.
