a short science resource
good early resource
good introduction to science inquiry

[Marwin Fernandez]

Simple book that teaches children what velocity is. I do agree with its simple definition as it is "speed plus direction" (23). Knowing that early definition now is a great start when they get into physics, but it can be held off for another time.
