In this fun, kid-friendly, read-along book, children and their parents examine gravity through the eyes of a middle-school aged Galileo and his best friend Newton, who, spurred by the phenomenon of two objects falling, explore the question “Do heavier objects fall faster than lighter ones?” Children learn basic experimental design in the context of an easy to understand and engaging story that is sure to inspire further exploration and thinking. Big Science is designed for reading aloud, which is one of the most important activities in developing a love for reading and is a key indicator for academic achievement later on. Throughout the book, parents will find useful questions and discussion topics related to the story in the “Parent Corner.” These questions guide parents as they engage their children in deeper analysis of the text and builds scientific reasoning skills.
