(4) K-3 Using Materials series. These books do an adequate job of introducing each material, explaining its properties and how it's used. The clean page design and brief text are accessible, but brevity sometimes leads to oversimplification of complex processes. There are four other spring 2004 books in this series. Reading list, websites. Glos., ind. Review covers these Using Materials titles: How We Use Coal, How We Use Glass, How We Use Oil, and How We Use Plastic.
