Gravity: Mass, Energy, and the Force that Holds Things Together with Hands-On Science<\/em>
\nby Cindy Blobaum (Author) and Micah Rauch (Illustrator)
\n@ Amazon<\/a> | Bookshop<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

Booktalk:<\/strong> Scientists ages 8 to 12 explore the invisible but powerful force that is responsible for keeping the entire universe in place–including you! Gravity is the natural phenomenon that makes everything in the universe attracted to everything else. On Earth, that means gravity is why we fall down toward the ground, the reason we have tides, and why we weigh a certain number of pounds. Hands-on STEM activities and links to online resources and videos throughout the book.<\/em> <\/p>\n
