And Everyone Shouted, "Pull!" (First Look: Science) [Hardcover]

Claire Llewellyn (Author), Simone Abel (Illustrator)

Book Description

Age Level: 4 and up | Grade Level: P and up | Series: First Look: Science

Through the humorous observations of farmyard animals, we watch the UPS and DOWNS of a farmer and his animals as they try to take their goods to market. Each spread shows a problem en route - a steep hill UP, a steep hill DOWN, a slippery road - and the effect it has on the animals and the farmer's cart. In doing so, the book introduces ideas about the rules of forces and motion (Science Key Stage 1) - and has a lot of fun along the way! This is an engaging and beautifully illustrated information book that encourages children to question the world around them.

I know it's a book aimed at young children but dang, there's just not much science here.
