About the Book
A charming science-based story that introduces preschoolers to the wonders of floating and sinking, followed by a step-by-step aluminum foil boat activity to further engage curious little learners
Billy then picked up a pebble and dropped it into the rock pool with a PLOP. This fell straight to the bottom and rested on the soggy sand. "Pebbles sink because they're small but heavy," Billy's dad explained. Young children will love this delightful and gentle science-based story, where Billy learns all about the fascinating forces that result in floating or sinking. Charming illustrations follow Billy and his dad as they explore the forces that affect the buoyancy of everyday objects, and conduct experiments on creating the perfect mini boat, in a tale that will inspire and engage curious little learners and budding young scientists. Followed by a simple step-by-step activity to help children create their own little aluminum foil boats-and test how much they can carry! Discover more about the world around you with Science Stories-the perfect way to learn about science through story and play, with gorgeous illustrations and a fun step-by-step activity at the end of every book.
