Hardback. Zustand: Very Good. This book is chock full of holes--shallow and miles deep, microscopic and visible from space, human-caused and natural, mysterious and maddeningly familiar. When you think of holes, what comes to mind? Maybe the irritating hole in your sock. Or the hole on the shelf where you plucked out this book. But did you know there are holes that suddenly devour entire gas stations? Big holes in the ocean that are visible from space? Small holes in balls that prevent a backyard home run? A hole is a part of something where there's nothing at all. Holes are investigated by scientists, used by artists, designed by engineers, and fixed by problem-solvers.  They can be natural or human-made, big or small, plentiful or scarce, mysterious or painfully familiar. Many are important to our everyday lives, whether we give them credit or not. A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection. Meganck, Robert (illustrator).…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. This book really pops, full as it is of fascinating bubbles--useful and entertaining, noisy and silencing, lifesaving and dangerous, microscopic and bigger than a sports stadium. What is a bubble? A puff of air, a swirl of gas, temporarily trapped in something else. Perhaps just moments away from popping and disappearing forever. A bubble might look flimsy and insubstantial. But there's more to it than that. A bubble can. . . Last a long time, like the bubble wrap that cushions packages Or pop right away, like a soap bubble It can be inside. . . A liquid, like boiling water Or a solid, like a loaf of bread A bubble can be. . . Lifesaving, like firefighting foam Or dangerous, like the bubble nets whales form to capture fish Delve into bubbles in this follow-up from the team behind This Book Is Full of Holes. Filled with fascinating and unusual examples from diverse STEM fields--including physics, biology, geology, food science, and medicine--this book bubbles over with fun facts about our world. Back matter includes an author's note about the research process, language arts connections, and information about how surface tension makes fun soap bubbles possible.
