First sentence: Scientists are curious. Do you wonder...How do volcanoes erupt? What makes a rainbow glow in the sky? What was the BIGGEST dinosaur? Scientists try to figure out how the world works. How does a caterpillar become a buttefly? Why do green leaves turn red, orange, gold?

Premise/plot: This board book is a lovely little introduction to science. It features pages that fold out, flaps that lift, and wheels that turn.

My thoughts: I enjoyed I Love Space. I did. I thought it was fun--clever. But I really LOVED I Love Science. I thought the text was great and the illustrations were bold.

It’s cute, it’s interactive, but why doesn’t it provide the answer to the questions? “How fast do dolphins swim?” Hang on...let me google that....
