Editorial Reviews

This easy reader is a first introduction to gravity. Told in the simplest of terms, it answers a child’s first questions about gravity.

No Flying No Tights

Each of these easy-to-read books answer questions often asked by children. The information is presented in a way that young readers can understand. There are usually several full-color drawings on each double-page spread which resemble the layout of graphic novels. There are generally one or two sentences about each picture, often accompanied by a caption. One of the features especially helpful for developing readers is that the last picture asks a question which is then answered on the next page. Recommended.

Library Media Connection

Wonderful quality cartoonish illustrations are delightful and add humour to the factual text.
