Inhaltsangabe

From the same author-illustrators who brought young readers Hungry for Math (a poetic look at math concepts) comes Hungry for Science. These short, lively poems help young readers explore scientific concepts -- from chemical reactions to magnets, life cycles and more. A glossary of scientific terms is included in the backmatter.

    A Chip Off the Old Rock

    I'll weather the weather, whatever it brings,
    eroding from larger to smaller things.
    From boulders to cobbles, from pebbles to sand,
    rumble, crumble, whirl - I travel the land.
    Pulled by gravity,
    down a steep slope,
    pushed by ice (to warm places I hope),
    tumbled by rivers, I scramble downstream,
    blown by the wind - it's all part of my dream!
    Deposited gently, I've come from good stock.
    I know I'm a chip off an igneous rock.
