Supplements Sound Sticks STEM Kit

I enjoyed reading this book because it starts off by really drawing attention to how much sound waves and communicating is a part of life. It makes the ordinary reader feel like this book immediately applies to their life (which it does). It starts more basic, talking about what sound is and why it is important, but then also moves into the intricate details of how sound works. I appreciated the use of beautiful images and familiar examples such as Monsters Inc. Additionally, I appreciated the "Think like a scientist" section that gives the reader an easy experiment to try at home. ( )

I am coming to find out that I love all of the Jenna Winterbergr science books! This book specifically is great because it begins by discussing the power of sound itself, and then defines what sound is. It’s points build on themselves very well as it moves on to talk about measuring sound, then how sound travels, and finally sound ideas. It also concludes with a DIY science experiment about sound which uses accessible materials. ( )
