About the Story: Preparing for his birthday party, Jay is frustrated that the balloons he blows up do not float. His sister, Kayla, comes to his aid and teaches him all about the amazing properties of helium, the second most common element.
Our review: My oldest daughter is the perfect age for this book. We read it shortly after the Decatur Book Festival, and I was thrilled when my daughter made a connection to the book at the Tellus Science Museum the next day and we saw the periodic table of elements. The story includes playful rhythms that make it entertaining for kids. There are also "Check it Out" pages throughout the text that include supplemental information and suggested experiments that make learning the scientific concepts fun. What I love the most about this book is that it brings diversity to the children's book world; which is so needed. I hope there are more books like this in the works. This book would be perfect in any elementary science classroom, home school supplemental text, or home library.
