I liked how this book covered many people that discovered the laws of force and motion. It talked a lot about Isaac Newton. My favorite part of this book is when it talked about stacking cards on top of each other into a tower.

This book was okay. Half the stuff wasnt even about force and motion

Through some portions of the book were challenging to comprehend, I found the illustrations to be valuable in deciphering these parts. The author does a decent job of explaining the concepts, but I felt they were still a bit tricky. One component I particularly enjoyed was the way some , more confusing elements wee put into everyday examples.

This book was about friction, floating and sinking, Archemide's screw, motion in nature, all or that stuff. Archemide's screw is a way to spiral up water and put it somewhere else. I would rate my book a four stars because it was a little tiring in some parts, but otherwise I loved it.
