(3) K-3 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. Illustrated by Paul Meisel. Brief, declarative sentences explain and illustrate facts about different kinds of energy. While stopping short of introducing potentially useful terms like kinetic and fossil, Bradley ably demonstrates these and other concepts with the help of lively cartoonlike images, most featuring children engaged in energetic pursuits (e.g., a family roasts hot dogs). Two simple experiments end the book.
