Science with Water is an informational book that shows and instructs many different types of experiments that can be done with water. It teaches kids about the different types of things that go on with water, like evaporation, and informs them on why it happens. It also gives information on everyday things that students may be interested in, such as why ice is slippery, so that they can be interested in the information that is being given. I would be able to use this for when I am teaching about nonfiction in the classroom and I could use it for if I were to teach science. Personally, I used to read this book when I was growing up in order to find out about experiments that I would be able to do in class for a project. This would be a book that I keep in my classroom and that I would let students borrow so that they would be able to try some of the experiments at their house.
