Isbn: 9780823450701 - the universe in you: a microscopic journey (15 Ergebnisse)

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Jason Chin, winner of the Caldecott Medal for Watercress, dives into the microscopic building blocks of life in this companion to the award-winning Your Place in the Universe. In Your Place in the Universe, Jason Chin zoomed outward, from our planet, solar system, and galaxy to the outer reaches  of the observable universe. Now, Chin reverses course, zooming in past our skin to our cells, molecules, and atoms, all the way down to particles so small we can't yet even measure them.  Like its companion, The Universe in You is a mind-boggling adventure that makes complex science accessible and enjoyable to readers of any age. Impeccably researched, wholly engrossing, and with extensive backmatter for additional learning, The Universe in You is another knockout from the award-winning creator of Redwoods, Grand Canyon, and other distinguished works of nonfiction for young readers.  An American Library Association Notable Children's Book A Kirkus Reviews Best Book of the Year A Horn Book Fanfare Title A School Library Journal Best Book of the Year A Junior Library Guild Gold Standard Selection.…

Zustand: FINE. First printing. A fascinating and lovely book by this Caldecott winning author and illustrator - an "exploration of the tiniest components of matter conceptualized by science. The book opens with a brown-skinned child who uses a wheelchair visiting a Southwestern desert. The United States smallest bird, butterfly, and bee, in turn, alight on her finger, in close-ups that ultimately zoom in to a hair on that finger and put in motion a journey inward to the 'building blocks' of biology and physical science. The expedition moves from skin cells to molecules, then to atoms, protons, and elementary particles. Each page, ending in suspenseful sentence breaks takes readers to the next step inward. Chin's stunning watercolor and gouache illustrations, colorfully detailed and scientifically accurate, employ perspective to draw readers into observations of life and matter within the smallest possible spaces." (Horn Book) SIGNED by Chin on the title page with the comment "Look close!" Includes several pages of factual information. Large square format, unpaginated (40 pp) Fine in fine dust jacket (a new copy.).…
