What Is A Liquid? (first Step Nonfiction, States Of Matter) [Paperback]

What Is a Liquid?

Concepts that describe the basic physics of liquids are explained in five to fifteen-word sentences that define what a liquid is and what it is not. The properties of liquids are also described. The first page introduces matter, and a series of introductory pages put a liquid within the larger context of matter. Colorful photographs of young children and adults accompany the descriptions of each characteristic of a liquid. Two pages at the end of the book suggest an activity demonstrating that an amount of liquid may look smaller or greater, depending on the shape of its container. A list of six Fun Facts about liquids follows, with a glossary and an index concluding the book. This book is part of the First Step Nonfiction States of Matter series and would be a good addition to a preschool and/or early elementary science program.
