Enough information but not so much as to overwhelm a child. I might quibbble over some of the information in the back as it says solar energy does not produce pollution and this glosses over the production of panels and their disposal. All in all though, very good. This book starts off by talking about the sun, and how it is the golden star and how it warms the land and water, and how the water forms to make clouds. It then talks about how the energy in the clouds turn to rain, and how rain is added to our waterways. From there, it talks about electricity and how it powers our cities and communities. It talks about hydroelectricity, turbine electricity, photosynthesis, and how the sun is the fuel for trees, plants, and animals, and how this feeds our organisms. It also talks about fossil fuels and coal. This is a great book for all ages because it talks about very complex ideas and processes, but in a way that is understandable by young beings. It is also supplemented with detailed illustrations that are easy for children to view and relate to. This book is written in first person from the perspective of the sun. The books starts by the sun introducing itself and where it is, and goes on to explain where its light/heat/energy travels throughout the course of the day. I think this book would be great for the third grade range. I like this book because it is written pretty simply, and make the content clear and easy to understand. The pictures are also good because most of the are diagrams but illustrated in an interesting way. I would use this in a third grade classroom when talking about energy and what we get from the sun (light, heat, energy). Summary: This book walks through the different aspects of energy caused by sunlight. It is written from the perspective of the sun so it takes a non traditional view. This book also talks about energy in water, plants, and coal. Thoughts: I absolutely loved this book. I thought both the content and illustrations were highly engaging. I also really like that although it was informative, it was still engaging and the storyline kept you wanting more. Use/Strategy: - Teach about writing with perspective and voice - Teach about the sun and how it affects earth - Talk about space and how the earth orbits - Teach about electricity sem críticas | adicionar uma crítica
