(2) K-3 Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science series. Illustrated by Giovana Medeiros. In concise, straightforward prose, DeCristofano introduces readers to solar power: where it comes from and how it's harnessed, converted into energy, and used. Colorful digital illustrations depict a diverse cast of characters using solar energy. Well-placed questions ("What happens when it rains? Or when clouds block the Sun?") involve readers in the narrative. Appended with an experiment and a pictorial diagram showing uses for solar energy. Glos.
