Same review as "Bears" by Melvin and Gilda Berger. This is another pointless book with no science in it. I ordered all these little science books from scholastic, so it is hard to know what you are going to get. I was expecting so much more out of these books. The semantics can make the book confusing and it is so simple, I'm not sure how anyone can really learn from them. I guess they are supposed to be easy to read, but who wants to read such boring books? At least they all have good pictures.

This short book introduces the concept of gravity in a very base sense. It is a great introduction to very young children. The pictures are good and it repeats the word "down" in a way to make it identifiable.
