4.0 out of 5 stars
Good reporting.,
This review is from: What Magnets Can Do (Rookie Read-About Science) (Paperback)
This book is like a brightly illustrated science report by a young student scientist. It shows simple magnets, with positive and negative poles, attracting and repelling. It shows what is attracted and repelled (metals, plastics, wood, etc.) It provides great re-inforcement or whrrat you child has learned or will learn by playing with real magnets.The book goes further, with identification of electro-magnets and where you might see them in use. It's simple and exciting and makes you (or your child) want to play with magnets!

Donated this to a kindergarten class and the kids and the teacher loved it. Hopefully, it will inspire kids to go into science.

This review is from: What Magnets Can Do (Rookie Read-About Science) (Paperback)
I admit I was a tad disappointed when this book arrived. It is so small and thin I wondered how it could possibly help my first grader understand what magnets are about. Well, I did purchase several other books on the subject but this provided the basis for understanding what magnets are about, at a level a young child can easily comprehend.The book covers basic information on magnets, and how magnets attract and repel, as well as the objects magnets repel and attract. I also purchased a simple magnet kit to go along with this and some iron filings. My husband and I found this to be an excellent primer on magnets for our daughter before embarking on her first science project, and yes, it is on magnets.
