I love the unique presentation of science ideas in this book. It can be read as a simple story of a bird building a nest, with or without incorporating a discussion behind the forces of physics that are presented as natural parts of the storyline. We didn’t get too much into the physics aspect on our first read, but would plan to on subsequent reads. I like that the parent/teacher can choose just how much of the physics aspect to get into at a time. I do wish that a little more detail was given in the front for the parent who would be attempting to teach the ideas, some was presented but very minimal.
I really enjoy the illustrations and their use of color. There’s just something about this style that appeals to me greatly.
