Simple Machines: Wheels, Levers, and Pulleys

This is a great book to support understanding of simple machines!

Gave this out to siblings with grandchildren and found myself thinking differently! Need to read it carefully first, understand the points made until comfortable, and read with child. Can set up little examples of the principles in motion to reinforce the learnings. Great little book.

Book is nice fir young childern to learn early science

Thought provoking for little kids.

As I read it to my 4-year-old, I made the story a tad more fun with my own interjections. I bought the book as part of a gift for another kid and I was kind of disappointed at first, since it's a little bit of a dry read. But then, my son and his friend would start to point out when they recognized a "simple machine" in our daily lives and I realized he had absorbed it entirely. It's a great introduction to concepts and initiates problem-solving skills in kids - for example my son made a Leggo lever to help his tiny people lift blocks. It was very cool.
