One of my favorite science books! My kids learned so much about physics. The next thing you know everything in your house is a simple machine and many discussions come up on Newton's laws of motion and mechanical advantage. I love that each section is simply stated and God is glorified in His handy work. He of course set all scientific laws in motion!
