Reviews

[Allen · Rating 3 out of 5]

I think Sid The Science Kid and Teacher Susie should be more careful in their use of the term “ice”.

My kids have watched Sid the Science Kid several times, so they are familiar with this character and his personality. They liked the book and enjoyed learning about the melting-freezing process. They asked, so we read it several times.
