Hey, Water! | Antoinette Portis

This can be used to introduce a lesson about water or the states of matter. The book does explain in simple terms what the different states of matter are and examples of them. The book seems to be meant for 5- 8 year olds.

This is a simple, easy-to-follow nonfiction book. Each page has only five or so words on it. It is nonfiction because the book provides examples of the different forms that water could be in. And, it talks about how to conserve water.

“Water, even when you try to fool me, I know you.
You blast and huff.
Whistle and puff.
Steam.“

Hey, Water! | Antoinette Portis

This is a simple read that provides illustrations while discussing the different ways water exists in our world. I think this would fit very well in a Kindergarten to 4th grade classroom. This could be included in a curriculum to introduce water to students and how it is not as simple as it seems, even transitioning into the water cycle.

This is a quick and simple book about water and how it exists all around us. The author provides fun illustrations that demonstrate how water can be a large mass, like the ocean, or exist as a tear. It explores the different states of matter, with water being a gas (steam and clouds) and water being a solid (ice cube/ iceberg).

I ate this one up. I was a little worried that it might not do well as an audiobook, but it actually worked out okay. It was a lovely, curated trip through some of the most influential inventors and she even highlights inventions patented by kids. This would be a fun STEM book to use with kids in a homeschool or co-op school setting. This would even be great for summer activities with kids. Even as an adult, I enjoyed this one tremendously.

GingerAntics I saw a lot of myself in Temple Grandin‘s discussion of building things from her imagination from whatever she could find as a kid. I did the same thing as a kid, so I think that little inventing, building inner child greatly enjoyed this book (which is probably why I inhaled it in less than 2 days). 1y
