This is an iScience reader filled with scientific information and investigations to carry out on the theme of Sound. It introduces scientific vocabulary in context, explaining and defining terms in an easy to understand manner. It is colourful, well illustrated by photographs and pictures. There are questions to stimulate further investigations and encouraging a ‘have a go’ attitude. The findings are also put into context in real life situations, making the learning relevant and transferrable. There are also a glossary, suggestions for further reading and additional notes to answer some of the questions asked in the book.

What a great way to encourage children to investigate Sound! This book is beautifully presented, uses correct terminology in contexts that aid understanding and helps enthuse readers about Science. This book would be great to have at home and in schools, too. As a teacher I could easily use this to introduce and encourage pupils to investigations about Sound. I have no hesitation in highly recommending it!

Thanks to the author, publishers and NetGalley, too, for letting me read an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

This book was very beneficial in breaking down how sound works and how we respond to it for elementary students! Was a great resource for hand s on learning and projects. Short an easy to read for students will be using it again for lesson resources!
