Light

Light is a wonderful science reader for the primary classroom. It has gorgeous photos and clearly written concepts.

Light: Physical Science, by Mary Lindeen is an informative book that provides a fun way for children to learn about various aspects of light.
 
As a part of the Read and Discover Science series, this book encourages children to learn about scientific subjects while working on their reading skills. According to a note from the publisher: "The series can be used with beginning readers to practice high-frequency words, academic language, and to expand comprehension of life, earth, and physical science."

Within thirty-two pages, there are interesting science facts and Did You Know sidebars intermixed with full-color images. Also, there are sections titled as How Have You Used Light Today, Connecting Concepts, and Word List.

Light is a children's non-fiction picture book that's geared toward kindergartners to third graders.

 
Note: I received this book from NetGalley, which is a program designed for bloggers to write book reviews in exchange for books, yet the opinions expressed in this review are my own.

This is another great science book for young readers. Simple but diverse, this book will engage early readers and encourage those who are science minded and maybe open more than a few minds to the wonders of the created order all around us. This is a really neat book.

Simple introduction into light for younger children. The text is simple, the visual aids are complimentary.

Light is part of the Physical Sciences series for young readers by Mary Lindeen.  Children learn about light, and the ways it is formed, as well as different types of light. Light can be used for many things too. As a way of helping us see, and helping animals communicate or hunt. Like others in the series, this one has simple, easy to read sentences, and provides grounding in basic scientific concepts in ways young readers can grasp. The end of the book features a Connecting Concepts section with questions to ask about the reading, and practise with vocabulary and reading fluency. My cubs and I enjoyed reading this book.
