Why Does That Happen? Physics for Kids: Simple Answers to 100 Amazing Questions About Motion, Gravity, Energy, Electricity, Light, Sound, Space, and How Things Work
Why does a ball roll when you push it? Why do things fall? How does electricity make a light turn on? Why can we see through glass? How does sound reach our ears? Why does the Moon stay in the sky?
Why Does That Happen? Physics for Kids answers 100 fascinating questions about the world around us in a simple, engaging, and kid-friendly way.
Designed for curious young learners, this book turns everyday "Why?" and "How?" questions into exciting opportunities to discover physics. Each question introduces an interesting scientific idea and explains it in language children can understand.
Inside, young readers can explore questions about:
Motion, speed, and forces
Gravity and falling objects
Energy and how it changes
Electricity and everyday technology
Magnetism and magnetic forces
Light, colors, shadows, and reflection
