(4) K-3 My World of Science series. Bright, attractive photos--often of children engaged in various scientific activities--are the best part of these limited books that present opposites. The texts sometimes struggle to define terms in short sentences for an uninitiated audience. This updated series, which includes some quiz-type questions, could be a good starting point for young researchers. There are sixteen other fall 2008 books in this series. Reading list. Glos., ind. Review covers these My World of Science titles: Hot and Cold, Flexible and Rigid, Soft and Hard, and Transparent and Opaque.
