Let's-Read-and-Find-Out Science books help satisfy a young child's curiosity about the world books. Each book in the series introduces basic science concepts and builds on them using a step-by-step method, based on theories about how young children should learn best.

Stage 2 books explore more challenging concepts for children in the primary grades and include hands-on activities that children can do themselves.Did you know that moonlight is really sunlight? The moon can't make its own light, so it receives light from the sun and then sends it to us here on the Earth.Any child who's ever wondered about the fascinating properties of light will want to read this classic science title. Readers will even learn how fast light can travel: from the moon to the Earth in less than three seconds! Veteran science author Franklyn M. Branley's lively text and Stacey Schuett's new illustrations combine fun facts and hands-on activities in this accessible introduction to the science of light.
