Explains the concept of motion and how things move fast or slow.

"There are forces acting on your body right now. Every time you breathe and move, forces are used. Gravity is the force that stops us from flying into outer space. Without forces, we would not be able to move!"--

"Pushing against a wall and pulling on a rope are examples of forces at work in the world around us. This age-appropriate way of discussing forces allows young readers to explore beginner physics using language and examples they can easily understand. The simple, accessible text and colorful diagrams present a basic science curriculum topic to early learners in a fresh and fun way. Vibrant photographs of young people experimenting with forces encourage...

While at play with his dog, Newton, a young boy discovers the laws of force and motion in everyday activities such as throwing a ball, pulling a wagon, and riding a bike. Includes "For Creative Minds" section

This book explains where energy comes from, how energy works, and how people can save energy.

"A big push can help your sister reach new heights on the swing, and a helpful hand can pull her up if she falls. Forces in motion are everywhere. They make things move with a tugging pull or a great, big push. Explore exciting science concepts through fun examples and simple, lively text to set learning into motion"--

An airplane soars through the sky. A wind gust blows through the leaves. Objects are in motion all around you. But what makes objects move? And what are some different ways that objects move? Read this book to find out! Learn all about matter, energy, and forces in the Exploring Physical Science series, part of the Lightning Bolt Books collection. With high-energy designs, exciting photos, and fun text, Lightning Bolt Books bring nonfiction topics...

This book, in graphic novel format, follows the adventures of Max Axiom as he explains the science behind energy.

Simple step-by-step text and photographs for seven pressure experiments. Includes a materials list.

"In this engaging title, young readers learn about the moving form of energy that is motion! The relationship of mass and acceleration is explained, as are the forces of downforce, updraft, friction, inertia, centripetal force, and the role of aerodynamics in managing these forces. These properties are illustrated by the running of car races. Colorful infographics make internal combustion, mass and acceleration, and centripetal force easily accessible,...
