[Margaret]

Here is a great book explaining in clear large text how levers work to exert force to lift heavy objects or even work in a nutcracker. Bright simple photos and well-drawn illustrations make this a great resource for primary grades. Table of contents, glossary, and index introduce young readers to nonfiction book format.

[Tara DuBose-Schmitt]

You don’t often encounter the word “fulcrum” in an early reader book.
